Hi :) The problems you are running into are very unusual. It sounds like there is a problem with your operating system (probably Windows Xp?).
The best i can suggest is to; 1. try fully uninstalling LibreOffice 2. shutdown your machine (means switch it off) 3. switch it on again 4. reinstall the newer LibreOffice Steps 2 and 3 tend to fix a lot of problems on most computer systems (errrr excluding server machines) Regards from Tom :) On 30 June 2014 15:04, David M Pelly <david.pe...@hotmail.ca> wrote: > > > I am a Libre office user and have run into some problems. > > I wanted to file a bug report, but found the feedback process > overwhelmingly complicated, and filled with jargon and code only experts > can understand. > > > I went to upgrade my version from 4.2.3.3 to 4.2.5. > > During the downloading process I ran into several incongruencies. > > Simply stated; not enough information posted during down load process to > tell a non techie, non expert what is happening, what has happened, and > what to do next. > > They are difficult to remember and explain. > > The last problem I ran into, during installing was that I got a pop up > saying that I need to close file number 948, before installation can be > completed. > > How in the world am I supposed to know what file 948 is? > > When you guys are making this software, you have to take into > consideration that people who are not experts, people that do not know > anything about the technical side of computers and software, other than to > be a final user. > > > All programs have to be average non techie user friendly, and second > nature to use and automatic as much as possible. > > > > Another thing, that just came to mind is, on the download page, you > should explain to the non expert user, what he needs to do (list the steps) > to get the final product, in clear plain language.
