The feature request is to include a link to more explicit instructions on how
to install Offline Help:
"You may either download and install it from *here* or your system’s
repositories, or read an online version."

http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/stable/6.4.4/win/x86_64/LibreOffice_6.4.4_Win_x64_helppack_en-US.msi

Alternative suggestions:
1) Add a button to install it directly
2) Include Offline Help in the default installation, or add a checkbox.
