[Solved] OpenOffice won't start?

[david123]

Until yesterday my open office worked just fine, i tried to start the program but it just doesnt. i uninstalled and downloaded a fresh install but i still have this issue, can someone plz help me?

Start TaskManager (Ctrl Shift Esc) and kill any soffice processes shown on TM's Processes tab (Details tab on Win 10). Note "soffice" with an initial "s". OO should now start up OK when you try it after exiting TM.

tis was the first thing i did and i cant find any sofficeprocesses at all running:/

wheni look at background processes while starting OO i get 2 icons that just pops up and closes in a second.

[RoryOF]

I no longer use Windows and am not familiar with the more modern versions, so you should wait for more informed help.

[david123]

it is no longer a problem since i decided to never ever use OO again and use google docs instead bye bye OO
