If I try to install LibreOffice_6.1.3_Win_x64 it fails with the error message "Error 1327.Invalid Drive: E:\".

I have no drive E: and I didn't suggest that it should be installed there. Any idea why it assumes that I have and/or how to get around this?
 
Is it a legit sourced download?
You could try sticking in a usb stick and making sure it uses e: as it mapping to satisfy the check. if its legit then im guessing its not a generalised compile!?
 
This isn't a problem with Libreoffice, it's something with your system registry.

That uses regedit to update the registry or you can use CMD as Admin:

  1. Select Start » Run
  2. Type cmd (Run as admin)
  3. Type the command as shown in the image above – “C:\>subst E: C:\” -and press Enter
  4. Type exit to close the command window
  5. Attempt to install Libre
