Re: [libreoffice-users] Help, corrupted file after computer crash

Thanks,
1. I can not find any file in the backup directory. Just realised that
the backup option is off.
2. I am using file-roller, it failed to open the file.  I have tested
on my other files, file-roller can read the content of uncorrupted
file.
Any other suggestions?
