Step-by-step procedure to install the LibreOffice main program:

Step 1: Install

Open the folder where the LibreOffice Main Installer has been downloaded and double-click on the Installer.

Step 2: Welcome Screen

The Installation Wizard Welcome dialogue box opens, advising that the installation process is about to be started. Click “Next \(>\)”

Step 3: Setup Type

Another dialogue box opens, giving you a choice whether you want a default installation or you want to choose select particular and components.

If you want a default installation, just press the button “Next\(>\)”. If you need to make special choices, click on “Custom” and then press “Next\(>\)”.

Step 4: Custom Setup

The Custom Setup allows changes to the features that will be installed.

If you would want to install the spelling dictionaries, hyphenation rules, thesauri and grammar checkers:

Click Expand Optional Components
Click Expand Dictionaries

For instance, to install Tamil, ensure that Tamil is on the list. If so, select the option "Tamil" and “This feature will be installed on the local hard drive.”

Once all necessary changes to the features have been completed, click the button “Next\(>\)”.

Step 5: File Type

Another dialogue box opens, inviting you to select whether to open Microsoft Office documents with LibreOffice. By default, this feature is not enabled. Check all four checkboxes if you want LibreOffice to open Microsoft Office files (documents, spreadsheets, and presentations).
