           Summary: GPO upgrade error
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium

Description:
Unable to update libreoffice via gpo, 'cause regedit entries are missed to
removed by installer

Steps to Reproduce:
Dear all, after long time I will provide a common issue of libreoffice here.

Handling to install libreoffice over Windows GPO Deployment works well.
If the machine is fresh installed or you manually clean the regedit.

Ways to reproduce

- First patching local code from fresh downloaded libreoffice with orca or
insted

- Put patched file to your deploy shared folder
- Check permissions
- Assing to gpo with update older one.

The common issue here is by updating, that update libreoffice will first remove
the older libreoffice version but don't delete important entries from regedit:

like this:

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products\A5D06EB74445D4E4B9EAA6B5AE222CAA



reg delete
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products\A5D06EB74445D4E4B9EAA6B5AE222CAA"
/f

reg delete
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products\EC69789BDA0BE894184E89F63ABB029B"
/f

So after an gpupdate the older libreoffice will be removed but never version is
not seen. 

'cause that the removing process by updating over gpo left the entries on
regedit libreoffice think it was successfully installed.

Only solution here if we want to update libreoffice via gpo is to delete
manually on all clients the keys from libreoffice.

after his with an gpupdate libreoffice will be installed fine.



Actual Results:
No workaround found , only to remove manually this regedit entries.

Expected Results:
It works


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes

Additional Info:
Would be nice for some help here
