If you unpack LibreOffice Portable or X-LibreOffice to your hard drive (e.g.
to C:\X-LibreOffice412) it will remain contained in the unpack folder. It
does *not* overwrite *any* files and it will not use your Profile files. So, 
all is completely separate.

In fact if you miss some feature in version 3.5.7 you can get the
X-LibreOffice 3.5.7 release and run it *simultaneously* with version 4.0.5
