OpenOffice Begins Install but nothing...

Post by uksouvenirsandgifts »

Hi

I've been using Open Office for years and have just upgraded to Windows 10. I have tried installing the latest version but nothing happens.

I download, click install, it opens a window to install, closes, and then nothing. When i go back and click install again it tells me an installation is already in progress.

I've tried earlier versions but get the same issue.

Anyone else had this and solved it?

Thanks

You may need to install using an Administrator account, alternately right click on the downloaded file and choose "Run as Administrator" from the popup.

Bear in mind that I am not a current Windows user, and most certainly not a Windows expert.
