<pre>A change in profile path from "LibreOffice 4" to "LibreOffice 6" or even just
to "LibreOffice" is appropriate.
On Windows builds we've adjusted the installation folder now to just
LibreOffice <a class="bz_bug_link

title="RESOLVED FIXED - Enhancement request: Set default install folder under Windows to \LibreOffice\"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=62303">bug 62303</a>, but had kept the 'UserInstallation' set with " 4"
appended to PRODUCTNAME for the user profile, retaining any old sludge. [1]
Personally, I've never had qualms about forcing users onto a new profile.
Users should be responsible for migrating their customizations. Yes, we could
offer script help for that with that on first launch, to include for the
bundled shared extensions. But only if they choose so at first launch,
otherwise just steer them to new default profiles we know will work.
But moving macros is troubling, we could copy them over but beyond that no
obligation to fix anything.
Other extensions should be reinstalled--no apologies.
