HI :)
Ahah, then
+1
I like the idea of making use of the user-level choice.  Also i hadn't thought about the installer 
needing Admin (SuperUser to you Gnu&Linux people ;) ).  

I'm still struggling with the other side of this = how to set things for all users on a machine.  
Someone managed to stop his machine from being able to read Gifs and each time someone new logs in 
i have to right-click and fix.  Also with Firefox updates/upgrades people grumble about all the 
extra tabs they get informing them about all their add-ons.  So, while i need something opposite i 
do like it when people take an interest in configuring things to their own tastes (as long as it 
doesn't stuff-up everyone else but then LO wouldn't).  When people show me what they like i often 
learn.  
Regards from 
Tom :)

Hi Tom

It's in the "Repair" or "Modify" option.  It's another reason why it's
good to hang on to installers although i think that is generally good
advice for any software you install on Windows.  It can sometimes be a
good idea in Gnu&Linux and probably the rest too.  

I've just had a bit of trouble uninstalling a few odd things from a
Windows box but reinstalling fixed the programs problems and then it was
easier to uninstall.  A bit mad but not hugely unusual.  Err, i did have
to resort to revo-uninstaller too but that was for other cr@#$£

I know that. But I consider that a workaround (not a solution) for
knowledgeable IT people. In fact that requires Admin privileges.

What I am requesting is a feature for any user ;)

File association is at the User level. One user might prefer LO and another
AOO or even MSO :)

Cheers,
Pedro
