Jean-Baptiste Faure:

I always use a user account on my Windows 7 box that is an Administrator
account.

So, I can typically just double click on a Windows installer program and it
works perfectly.

That was the case with every previous LibreOffice installer, if I recall
correctly.

But this time, when I tried that, the installation seemed to initially work, as
described in my original post, before ultimately failing at the end with a very
obscure error dialog.

So, I used a special technique (while still running in my normal Administrator
user account) to create a new task that executed LibreOffice_6.1.0_Win_x64.msi
with "administrative privileges".

I possibly may have made an error in my initial post: I said that I used the
technique in NanaYawIke's reply in this thread
        http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/1145-73-internal-error-2503-2502

I think that I actually used the slightly simpler technique in SangMin's Aug
17, 2015, 7:10 PM reply which is just above NanaYawIke's.

I know for sure that when I created the new Task in Task Manager that I checked
its box "Create this task with administrative privileges".
