The error message you are encountering, "C:\Users\....\Desktop\LibreOffice_Portable\App\Ap pInfo\Launcher\LibreOfficePortable.ini is missing [Launch]ProgramExecutable," indicates that the PortableApps.com Launcher cannot find the required configuration file to determine which executable to launch.
## Steps to Resolve the Error
1. **Check for the INI File**:
- Navigate to `C:\Users\....\Desktop\LibreOffice_Portable\App\Ap pInfo\Launcher`.
- Ensure that the `LibreOfficePortable.ini` file exists. If it is missing, the launcher cannot function correctly.
2. **Create or Restore the INI File**:
- If the `LibreOfficePortable.ini` file is missing, you may need to recreate it. The file should contain a `[Launch]` section specifying the `ProgramExecutable`.
- A basic example of what this INI file should look like is as follows:
```ini
[Launch]
ProgramExecutable=..\LibreOffice\program\soffice.e xe
```
- Adjust the path according to where your LibreOffice executable is located within your portable installation.
3. **Reinstall LibreOffice Portable**:
- If you cannot restore or create the INI file manually, consider downloading and reinstalling the Portable version of LibreOffice from [PortableApps.com](
https://portableapps.com/apps/office...ffice_portable). This should ensure that all necessary files, including the INI configuration, are properly set up.
4. **Check Permissions**:
- Ensure that you have sufficient permissions to access and modify files in your installation directory. Sometimes, UAC (User Account Control) settings can restrict access if installed in certain directories like `C:\Program Files`.
5. **Run from a Different Location**:
- As noted in various discussions about portable applications, running them from system-protected directories like `C:\Program Files` can cause issues. Try moving your LibreOffice Portable installation to a different directory, such as `C:\PortableApps`.
By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and successfully launch LibreOffice Portable. If problems persist after trying these solutions, further investigation into specific configurations or logs may be necessary[1][5].
