Default Apache OpenOffice Portable 4.1.6 released

LibreOffice dropped support for Windows XP

1) because XP is insecure and all XP machines would die a horrible
death from massive hack attacks in 2014
2) very generous bribe from M$
(take your pick, one of them is true).

OpenOffice is a secure alternative and is kept current.

Loads in just under 2 seconds on my reasonably fast hardware.

Unless you want dozens of extra languages, mark the "remove extra
languages" box on install. It will install for the chosen language
+English.
You will probably want to disable all the phone home "features" in
settings. Also disable Java, VB scripting and "search suggestions".
And entering your name/address is OPTIONAL. Just don't.

PortableApps are best installed to C:\ or the root of a pendrive.
