AOO 4.1.5 looks for AOO 4.1.1 files on Installation

AOO 4.1.5 looks for AOO 4.1.1 files on Installation and cannot find them on the Desktop. It reverses the installation process, removes ODBC files, tells me AOO 4.1.5 has been installed correctly - but nothing is installed.

I see two ways of approaching this: download and install 4.1.1, then let 4.1.5 overwrite it, or use CCleaner or Revo uninstaller (at its most aggressive) to remove all traces of 4.1.1, then reboot and install 4.1.5

However, CCleaner or Revo can damage an operating system, rendering it unbootable if used incorrectly, so I recommend the first method.
