Shut down OpenOffice *and* the Quickstarter (that's important). Navigate to the folder C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\OpenOffice.org2\user\registry\data\org\openoffice where "<username>" is your Windows logon user name. In that folder is a file name "Setup.xcu". Rename this file to something that does *not* end with ".xcu", for example "Setup_xcu.old". Start OpenOffice. You might be faced with the registration question. If so, click "already registered". Shut down OpenOffice. Now you should be in good shape; the registration question should not happen again. You may now delete the file you renamed above; a new Setup.xcu will have been created - leave it as is. Note. The above procedure was copy/pasted from the answer to the same question from another user. I'm not sure if the *exact* path is correct for Win 98 (and I have no way to find out). The "setup.xcu" file is what's important so, if the exact path is wrong, just try to find setup.xcu and then go from there. -- Harold Fuchs London, England Please reply *only* to users@openoffice.org
