Hi :)

Does renaming LibreOffice's config folder stop the behaviour?  If so 
then you
might want to copy some stuff back into the new folder from the backup 
you just
made to get some of your settings back.

I was also wondering what would happen if you created a new document 
with the
same name and location as the non-existent one it tries to recover and 
then open
the new document.

Tom :)

Hi Tom

Good on you for responding to the posts on top/bottom posting.

May I suggest one little extra, which is to delete the "--" at the 
bottom of the post you are responding to? or of course start your 
response above them.  Otherwise your response comes through as .sig and 
is dimmed out and not quoted if someone then responds to you. I 
deliberately copied and pasted your note in above.

Keep up the good work.

Regards

Russell
