I will look within C:\\Program Files for the 64-bit jre and within the
C:\\ Program Files(x86) for the 32-bit jre.
I did an update today; within Program Files > Java, showing these folders:
1. jre1.8.0.241 and
2. jre1.8.0.251, now.
AFAIK, the versions I gave in my OP for AOO and LO are the latest. I am
on a *n*ormal Release Distribution.

Hello Group:
My Windows 10 Home is used on a 64-bit architecture DELL desktop.
I recently downloaded and installed Libre Office software. So, now I
have both packages:
1. Apache Open Office: AOO415m1(Build:9789) - Rev. 1817496
2017-12-11 17:25 (This is AOO 32-bit version.)
2. Libre Office: Version: 6.3.5.2 (x64)
Build ID: dd0751754f11728f69b42ee2af66670068624673
Unless there is a very good reason not to, you should update both to the
latest versions.
The two JREs available to me are:
1. jre-8u201-windows-i586
2. jre-8u241-windows-x64
Again update both to jre-8u251 https://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
Given that a 32-bit java and a 64-bit java should/must not be
installed on the same machine/partition.
Where did you acquire this misinformation. For years I have had both 32
& 64 bit JRE installed and never encountered any issues.
I therefore must remove one of the JREs from my machine..... Or,
install and run the AOO 64-bit version, and keep the JRE-64 bit. But I
am uncertain if I would loose any of my 32-bit AOO existing files
and/or templates.
Provided you tell AOO to use the 32bit JRE and LO to use the 64bit JRE
it will not be a problem for you. Hint: Tools->Options->OpenOffice->Java
How should I proceed if I go ahead with the 64-bit AOO installation?
Will I loose any 32-bit AOO files/templates?
NO.
Are there any practical advantages included in AOO-64 over AOO-32?
Not sure what you mean by this.
Your suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks for reading this. Stay well and be safe.
VinceB.
Hope this helps.
