Personally I _never_ install Quickstarter for Windows builds (unfortunately
that requires I always do a custom installation to do so)--though I and others
have asked that this _anti-feature_ be dropped from defaults for interactive
use, or purged from source...[1][2]

But believe we are still affected by bug 51529 on the Windows builds--and have
to kill Quickstarter prior to performing an upgrade installation.

What is even more common is users confusing the build of LO they have installed
and attempting to update with 32-bit over 64-bit, or vice-versa. And often not
installing with Administrator credentials when they should be.

Anyhow this is still a WFM--on all instances 32-bit/64-bit of Windows 10
Creators ed. (ver 1703)

I will also normally have installed the current Visual C++ Redistributable for
Visual Studio 2015 outside the LibreOffice installations [3] seems there have
been a couple of issues there as well of late bug 108580

Setting this back to normal as it is rather not the norm, for these two
instances there have been hundreds of successful installs.

Let's see what a stack trace shows if one appears in response to the NEEDINFO,
and more MSI installation logs would help as well.
