I use X-Apache OpenOffice 1.5.2.0 , is portable and simple , but I have no advanced skills .
I tried to open a file that I have been working for long time and this is what happened :
A window appeared with the name – ASCH Filter Options
The only way to open the file is to click OK , I attached a screenshot of that window .
When the file opens is unreadable , it says - Preformatted Text , and the entire document has - #### , even though I have done nothing .
I made a copy of the file and left a small example of the entire document . Below you find the attachment .
I thank You in advance for any help in restoring the document to a readable format .
