UPDATE: now it works ! Has anyone tried downloading Libre Office lately ? I can get none of the links to work.

I can see long lists of files available for d/ling, but nothing works when I click on it or choose "save link".

I haven't updated LO for a l o o o o o n g time, and now I can't, apparently.


I tried again. Suddenly the icons in my browser bar changed, and the download went smooth and fast. Weird.

Your download LibreOffice_25.2.2_Win_x86-64.msi (348 MB) should begin shortly. BootinUp Mar 2025 #1
This is the page I started the download from BootinUp Mar 2025 #2
That's why I always use the torrent link offered or a trusted mirror like Major Geeks. Eugene Mar 2025 #3

I'm seeing a 9-minute straight download (around 600kbps).
A download accelerator cuts that time in half.

Can't imagine what might be stopping it for you.

Libre Office was one of the packages in the upgrade. Went just fine. No issues or guffaws getting the files from whatever repository I was feeding from.
