For years I have used a template with associated OOBasic Macro to create a skeleton document. Last used a few weeks ago. Macro located in "Libraryservice" library.
Now the template runs but does not find the macro.
Recently created several other macros for another project.("Library1") "Libraryservice" was there then.
Now, all my macros have disappeared, possibly after installing 4.1.11
A check of folder ......\OpenOffice\4\user\basic shows libraries "Standard" and my own ("Libraryservice";"Library1" etc) as expected.
These folders have the right filenames in them.
But only "Standard" appears in Tools/macros/Organise macros /OpenOffice Basic/organiser
How can I get the macros back?
I note that the OO version is automatically described as 4.1.9 on Windows 7 Wrong. It is 4.1.11 (from Help/About OO)

Re: Lost macro Writer
Restore folder %APPDATA%\OpenOffice\4\user\basic from backups. No backup because Windows users don't do any backups?
Go to that folder and edit script.xlc which manages the libraries.
Within the library subfolders script.xlb manages the modules.
