Comment 2 Joel Madero 2015-01-08 19:00:44 UTC 
Tested on:
LibreOffice 4.3.5
Windows 8.1 x64

My results:
During the install prompt I do get a "load libreoffice on startup" or something similar with a checkbox. 

So as far as this bug - from what I can understand - it worksforme. I suspect this was a side effect of bug 80927 where we disabled the QuickStarter due to a serious crashing issue.


That being said, there is a separate issue that needs to get reported. This is that the checkmark during install doesn't actually work. If you check it, then reboot, LibreOffice does not load on startup. But there is an easy workaround (go to tools -> options -> memory -> check "Load LibreOffice during system start-up."

It is a bug, and I'll file it now.
