I can't install OpenOffice on my Windows 7

Post by kjdy012 »

I have Windows 7 Professional 32-bit version from MSDN installed on my computer...

i downloaded OpenOffice 3.1.1 from the website and tried to install it couple times

but every time when I trying to intall it kicks off during installation.

I tried to run as administrator but it still kicks off...

How can i install it on my Window 7?

Have you tried to switch off your anti-virus and firewall?

Explain in detail what "kicks off" means. One possible meaning is "starts".

When I open the installation file. It unzips and then installation screen disappears.
All these happens after setting directory.

"Setting directory"? Are you doing a custom install?
