          Reporter: rus.rodgers@aol.com

I have a new ASUS lalptop with Windows 8.1.  I am the"Administrator" and only
user.  I have downloaded 'OPENOFFICE" at least 3 times and followed the
inallation steps from 'Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.0_Win_x86_install_en-US.exe" which
generates two Icons on my Desktop: a program Icon "OpenOffice 4.1.0' and a file
folder icon 'OpenOffice4.1.0 (en-US) Installation Files.'    

The following elements are loaded into the files by
'Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.0_Win_x86_install_en-US.exe:

* 'Openoffice 4.1.0 (en-US) Installation Files" contains: Licences, Readmes,
Redist, openoffice1.cab,      Openoffice410.msi. setup.exe and setup.init.

* "Program files (89)\Openoffice 4\Program" contains: soffice.exe and
soffice.ini.

When I click the OpenOffice icon nothing happens.  I have also have clicked
directly on "soffice.exe' and still nothing happens.  No Messages, no nothing.
I need help in solving this problem.

This is not enough. You must "run as Administrator" the file to install.

Did you check MD5 sum of your downloaded files?

All my executable programs are "run as Administrator" including the downloaded
installation program and 'Soffice.exe'.
