Process Explorer (a program similar to Windows Task Manager) gave the following
information about what was being run:
Path:
C:\Documents and
Command line:
"C:\Documents and" Settings\UserName\Desktop\OpenOffice 4.0.0 (en-US)
Installation Files\redist\vcredist_x86.exe /QB
Current directory:
C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Desktop\OpenOffice 4.0.0 (en-US)
Installation Files\
The result was that a previously existing program, not part of the open office
distribution, somewhere under C:\Documents and Settings\ was run, not the
intended program.
I am certain that this is the result of the path and filename not being
enclosed in quotes. I have seen this problem before with other software. It
must be that the code that launches vcredist_x86.exe does not enclose the path
and filename in quotes.
When I ran setup from C:\Temp it ran normally.
