I had to create a bat file with
C:\Windows\System32\msiExec.exe -i C:\Users\jiml\Downloads\LibreOffice_4.4.5_Win_x86.msi
and run it as administrator.
Only 4.4.5 worked
5.0.0 gave some incompatibility message.

Thanks. This worked for me.

Solved for me too by dooing this. Thanks.

Had also trouble with installing LibreOffice on Vista, MSI didn’t work for me, what worked was disable UAC (User Account Control). Then I used BAT file above and installed ok (latest version 5.0.3). Don’t know if disabling UAC is enough.

hope it helps :slight_smile:
