I was sending a cal document to be printed but the print never went through and LO hung. I had to close LO down. When I restarted LO I got the message that there was a file that needed to be recovered. I instructed to start recovery but it went into working mode and never came out. It is not a big file and should not have taken more than a couple of minutes to recover. I shut down and tried again a couple of times but without success. On searching for that particular file I found two references. The file is called "Invoices.ods". I also found "Invoices.ods.lnk" and ".~lock.Invoices.ods#". If I delete these last two will that release the file for recovery or will I be causing trouble by doing so? Are there any other options I can try? And if anyone says "go to backups" I will choke. I had just made a large number of changes to the file and had not had an opportunity to do a backup. Hope someone has a solution.
