Actual Results:
I have not proceeded beyond the above WARNING MESSAGE since I don't want to risk corrupting  my working files.

I have happily run LibreOffice for many years on my ancient Intel iMac (mid 2011 model) without any issues.  

Unfortunately, my migration to Apple silicon on the M2 MacMini Pro is proving unexpectedly challenging. I am not a technical specialist and am very reluctant to delve into modification of user profiles etc.

Expected Results:
I want to be able to open the LibreOffice app and open existing DOC, DOCX, XLS & XLSX feed for editing  in the normal manner.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
Please advise what I should do next.  Should I de-install the LibreOffice Software by simply dragging the app from the Applications Folder to the Trash Bin, are there any other actions that I should take before downloading a new LibreOffice DMG file?  Which version of Libre Office should I download & install?

Thank you for your help & advice.
