Install/Download of AOO 4.1.3 Failure

Today is the 2nd time that I have been unsuccessful in getting to the 
4.1..3 version of AOO.  I am using Windows 10 on a desktop PC. I made 
sure that AOO 4.1.2 is not opened.

I am using this URL: 
http://www.openoffice.org/download/?utm_source=AOO4_1_2_en-US&utm_medium=Client&utm_campaign=Upgrade 
.  There was a notice given that the page could not be found; I tried 
again, and it seemed to continue.

However, there is no desktop shortcut  for 4.1.3; a desktop shortcut for 
4.1.2 remains.

There was an error message saying ... Installation was interrupted. Your 
computer was not revised. ...I suspect that the installation went into 
an incorrect folder; should it be Programs x86 ?

Into which folder, precisely, should it be located.

Please advise.

Regards,

VinceB.

I suggest uninstalling 4.1.2 then installing 4.1.3 as a new download

Yes it should be programs x86. You cannot have OpenOffice open while updating

Also for me, just now tested.  The file should be in the Downloads directory used by your browser.  Double click on it to install.

Your fuller link also works, but is downloading the version for linux RPM, which suggests you have not made a selection from the dropdowns on the green version selector bars.

One thought: when installing, do you have Administrator privs?

I should not have included "/Downloaded" in the Subject line of my OP.

The link also, eventually, worked for me.  I find the downloaded files 
in a sub-subfolder on my Desktop folder, /i.e./, equivalent to the 
Download folder.
I believe that during the *installation wizard* process, the folder 
pointed to was incorrect.

What I mean to be asking is:
Into which folder should the executable, soffice.exe, for version 4.1.3 
be found?
Shouldn't it have overwritten the location of the 4.1.2 soffice.exe, 
which is found at: /This PC\OS(C:)\Program Files (x86)\OpenOffice 
4\program /. I think that the Installation Wizard should have pointed to 
the aforementioned location.

I am doing a search now for /soffice.exe /on /This PC / to see where the 
executable for 4.1.3 might be located. taking forever to finish !
