          Issue ID: 126013
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: Shortcuts to old quickstart
           Product: Installation
           Version: 4.1.1
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows 7
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: ui
          Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
          Reporter: david.bellair@rosebell.com

When a new release such as 4.1.1 is installed on Windows 7, it does not remove
quickstart shortcuts for older versions from the folder
C:\Users\userid\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup.
That folder on my PC has three shortcuts called OpenOffice 4.0.1, OpenOffice
4.1.0 and OpenOffice 4.1.1, all pointing to "C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenOffice
4\program\quickstart.exe".

At logon, three quickstart processes run, which slows down logon.  Eventually
only one process remains.

Also, if I uncheck Load OpenOffice During System Startup, the 4.1.1 shortcut is
removed but the others remain, so quickstart runs anyway.

Thank you for checking this.  I initiated the install from a userid in the user
(non-administrator) group, and when prompted by Windows entered the
administrator password.  Perhaps I should have initiated the install from the
administrator userid.

Test with Win7 x64 Pro and AOO 4.0.0 upgrade to 4.1.1

Quickstart shortcut nammed "OpenOffice 4.0.0" is present in %APPDATA%\...
Install AOO 4.1.1 with typical option
Previous shortcut is removed

So maybe a Windows rights issue.
You have forgot to install with administrator privilege one or both AOO
versions.
