#72 TeXmaths 0.42 fails (Libre Office 5.2.4, Windows 8.1)

TeXmaths 0.42 fails on Libre Office 5.2.4 on Windows 8.1. Error message is:
Add Extension(s):
C:\Users\Alan\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice\4\user\uno_packages\cache\uno_packages\lu4f7eqs.tmp_\TexMaths-0.42.oxt does not exist.

BTW, I get the exact same error if I try to install version 0.41...

Sorry for so many post-posts, my problem is with TeXmaths installation.

How the same kind of issue was solved here with LibreOffice 6.4.4.2 on openSUSE Leap-15.1.

Symptom: The TexMaths toolbar became a floating window with text button labels (no images).
And in extension manager, add TexMaths 0.48 or 0.48.2

Add Extension(s):
/home/ederag/.config/libreoffice/4/user/uno_packages/cache/uno_packages/lu16752aw06uy.tmp_/TexMaths-0.48.oxt does not exist.
Note: trying to install, TexMaths-0.46.oxt, the error message still mentions 0.46.
Moving the cache/ directory aside did not help, neither did
mv ~/.config/libreoffice/4/cache/ /home/ederag/.config/libreoffice/4/cache.old

Need to Close all libreoffice windows as well.

Below are steps conducted while trying to solve the issue,
just in case any would actually be important:
find ~/.config/libreoffice -type f -exec grep TexMaths-0.48.oxt {} \; -print
The only relevant match is

PkgDir="/home/ederag/.config/libreoffice/4/user/uno_packages/cache/uno_packages/lu16752aw06uy.tmp_/TexMaths-0.48.oxt/"
/home/ederag/.config/libreoffice/4/user/TexMaths/TexMaths-0.48.sh

Removing the TexMaths folder did not change anything.
mv ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/TexMaths ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/TexMaths.20613

This looked weird enough, so quit all libreoffice windows (there were impress and writer),
launched a new one, added TexMaths-0.48.2.oxt. Worked !
