OpenOffice 4.4.1 Now Fails on Windows-7 32-bit
OpenOffice will not install on Windows-7 (I'm using Home Basic 32-bit) as of today.
A week ago the same install file (I did a fresh download today as well) worked fine.

Sorry for the typo on version.
I'm supposedly a better tech than that -- I've loaded OpenOffice probably a hundred times.
This time, nothing worked. It was a fresh install of Windows-7. Restarts didn't change the result. The error message just said wouldn't run.
NOW ( 2:30 am) it DOES work. I did delete the Files folder, and then deleted temps (via Ccleaner) and ran CHKDSK first.
Apologies,

What error message do you get?
As a guess, something about closing all instances of OpenOffice: in that case either close the Quickstarter (blue icon with seagulls in system tray) or start TaskManager (Ctrl shift Esc) and kill all soffice processes shown on TM's Processes tab.
By the way, current OpenOffice is 4.1.1
