Hi :) There must be and i hoped that someone here would enlighten us where it's kept in Xp. Perhaps google for it? You could try opening LibreOffice from the command-line as that sometimes gives extra output such as problems and the command window should stay open after the app has crashed. This link might help with that although it's obviously made for heftier reasons http://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Starting_the_Software_With_Parameters/vi Hmm, i don't like the little "run" thing. I prefer to open a proper command window. It 'should' be in "Start" 'button' (the one you use to close the machine) - "All programs" - Accessories - errr this is where it gets weird, something like "MSDOS prompt" or "Cmd prmpt" or "Command window" (in Gnu&Linux we sometimes use a generic term, "terminal console" which sounds a bit dire) Hopefully it will accept the command libreoffice -writer or soffice -writer or without the "-writer" tag. My Ubuntu 10.04 at home didn't like any of those but the 11.04 at work liked them all. Weird really because i definitely installed 10.04 here and haven't upgraded and everyone else seems to use Windows on these machines. Magically it turns out i am on 11.04 and Gnome is looking great! The Xp public access machines wouldn't let me get to a command-line and i didn't look for the "Run" thing. Ahah, maybe the bug-reports page might help? http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport#Providing_extra_information_for_the_developers That got me to this YouTube video (it might be loud!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fppBTs215yc Regards from Tom :) --- On Tue, 1/5/12, Ant <ant@zimage.com> wrote: From: Ant <ant@zimage.com> Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] Unable to start my newly installed LibreOffice v3.5.2 programs.

I did a scratch install of 3.4.6 on my XP/pro machine. No crash. I did a partial delete then ran it again, did the repair, OK again Did it a third time but did the repair instead of the delete, and it worked again. There has to be something in your system. I tried to make the install work hard to install it on my XP machine, but it never crashed. The only problem is somewhere there is a place that stores the recovery info and it keeps trying to recover an Impress document that was deleted. I do not know what I have to delete to get it cleared out on an XP machine.

Take that option. That worked for me when I had my XP installs crash on me.I reran G:\test\LibreOffice 3.4 (4f600ba6) Installation Files\setup.exe since I already had it extracted/unpacked. So, I hope that's OK to save time. I ran its Repair. I reran Writer, same crash. I deleted my C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data\LibreOffice\ and reran it. Same results. LO hates my old XP Pro. SP3 machine. :(Also, The Application Data folder is a hidden one. If you go to your folder options and allow for system and hidden folders to be viewed, then delete the LibreOffice folder in your user folder's Application Data folder, it should help.I assume you mean C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data\LibreOffice\, then yes I did earlier.
