Re: [libreoffice-users] Tools -> options -> General -> Paths problem.

What OS are you using?  Do you use Windows, Mac, or Linux

The Recent Documents list seems to work fine with 3.4.2 on Ubuntu 
64-bit, even after rebooting.  It has been 5 days since my last reboot, 
and the list is 10 documents long, so I have only 2 or 3 of them older 
than the last reboot, though.

For Windows, I do not like to use the default Documents folder either.  
Same for Linux.  Are you saying that for LibreOffice the 
Tools>Options>LibreOffice>Paths  -->My Documents "Edit" changes WORKS as 
long as you reboot, but on reboot it resets back to the "default" 
folder?  What is the path you are trying to keep as your default?  Local 
drive?  USB drive?  Network accessible drive?  That might help the 
people figure out where the issue[s] might be located at as they try to 
replicate the problem.

To be honest, I have never tried this, but I think it may be there for 
network users where their default documents folder[s] are on a file 
server.  For me, I have documents in many different folders between 2 
drives.  Each folder is for a different use; LibreOffice stuff, Aktion 
Club stuff, BOINC Volunteering stuff, etc. etc..  I did not reset the 
default document path, since I have none.

I wish I could have been helpful.  If others can replicate your problem, 
then it will go into a bug report.
