As it is now it is a big of the installer, a designer-bug! Whether LibreOffice
actually really still needs that "javasettings_Windows_x86.xml" at all is
another question. And if that file is not needed anymore, since LO recreates it
when missing it is still up to the installer to remove that file in an upgrade
install!

And this is not about messing around with a users profile Sven, but setting up
the needed environment for the program and configuring it properly. That also
happens, and rightly so, in the users profile and registration, etc. And if an
installer shouldn't do all of this, then I ask you, Sven, what an installer is
good for instead ;)
