[Solved] OpenOffice disappears when it is closed «Q03»

Post by OldPFN »

Installed OpenOffice on Big Sur. Everything works great until I close it, then it disappears from the hard drive. I have to redownload and reinstall each time. Anyone else dealt with this?

Follow these installation instructions carefully. Do not guess how to install the application.
