Problem description: 

Installing RC1 as parallel installation is not possible.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Execute Custom Installation Wizard
2. Select different folder other than default
3. Execute setup

Current behavior:

the new installation installs to custom folder.  However, the previous version of the program is automatically removed.  Thus parallel installation is not possible.

Expected behavior:

Inputted new folder name other than default for secondary installation, in order to preserve the previous install of program.

It is not a bug because, as Release Candidate, LO 3.5.0 rc1 works the same way as the final release does.
Only development versions allow parallel installation.
