Italo and Jim -
It may be worth mentioning that one should start at
https://www.libreoffice.org/ and click on *DOWNLOAD* and then *Download
LibreOffice* in order to find the yellow *DOWNLOAD* button.
At least some Web browsers (e.g., Firefox) will show a small progress
indicator that tells how the download is going and whether it is complete.

When you click the yellow DOWNLOAD button, the download will start in
the background without any visible activity on your screen. We
recommend that you open the DOWNLOAD page in your browser to check the
status. Please do not close the browser until you are sure the
download is complete.
If the download does not start, please try a different server. To
change the server, you should click on the INFO link just below the
yellow DOWNLOAD button and select one from the list that appears on
the page that opens when you click on the INFO link.
You should also check that the download link starts with HTTPS,
otherwise the browser will not download the file. If this is not the
case, please change the server using the instructions in the previous
paragraph.
Please note that you can retry the download as many times as you like,
as long as you do not close the browser window before the download is
complete. You can ignore the donation request, as donations are
optional and help us keep the project alive.
If all goes well, when the download is complete, a window will open
asking you to choose whether to run the installer or save the file to
your hard drive. Please choose the second option and save the file to
your DOWNLOADS folder.
Then open the DOWNLOADS folder and double-click on the file (the name
starts with LibreOffice and ends with .MSI on Windows and .DMG on
MacOS). Follow the on-screen instructions carefully until the end of
the installation process.
If everything goes well, LibreOffice will be installed correctly and
will appear in your menu (for Windows) or in your Applications folder
(for MacOS).
Sorry for the long message. I hope this helps. Best regards.
