Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Urgent LibreOffice 5.2.5.1.

Hi :)
All the music should still be there.  Even if LibreOffice has gone the
music files should still be there.  The icons will look very different for
them because the pretty little colourful icons will have been replaced by
plain greyish (or something else dull) ones.  However the file-names and
file-sizes should still be the same (please see note at end if you still
can't find them).

If Anne-ology's advice doesn't work then simply download LibreOffice
again.  You don't need to contribute any more so it's completely free.

Downloading a newer version is the usual way to upgrade LibreOffice.  I
think most people on this mailing list tend to stick with the "Still"
version rather than "Fresh" branch for machines we need to work reliably.
Some people stick with much older versions.  The "Fresh" branch is good for
experimenting with newer features.

Note:  When you install, or rather reinstall, LibreOffice it should
automatically find it's "User Profile".  So it should have all the same
settings and configurations that you set-up for the previous version of
LibreOffice.  This works even if you install an older version than you last
had.  The "User Profile" also contains "Galleries" and other folders and
hopefully things like your "Recent Files" list should be intact.

So, one way or another you should be ab le to recover your files
automagically.  :))

Good luck and regards from
Tom :)
