OpenOffice 4.1.9, it opens very slowly

Post by michel53 »

I have always used OpenOffice on Windows 10 with no issues. After installation of OpenOffice 4.1.9, it opens very slowly (2 to 3 minutes). Even writing something takes a long time before the text appears. I have downloaded the full and the NL version. What have I done wrong or what should I do. Help, but I am not an IT specialist. Thanks in advance, greetings Michel

Start Windows in Safe Mode and run OpenOffice; is it still as slow to open in that Windows mode? You have sufficient free disk space?

I have downloaded the full and the NL version.
And did you install both ?

You just need the full Dutch version, which is
Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.9_Win_x86_install_nl.exe

You could try to do a repair on Win 10.
Go to Start > Instellingen > Apps, zoek in het vak Apps en onderdelen naar "OpenOffice"
That should give you OpenOffice 4.1.9
Select that and you should see an option "Wijzigen", click "Volgende", and choose Repareren.
Follow instructions on screen.

OpenOffice should now repair itself.

Try to reset your OpenOffice user profile.
