Every time I try to save an open office Calc or Writer document it defaults to My Documents :crazy:and I have to force it to Desktop which is what I want as the Default Folder.
Can someone tell me how to make Desktop my default save/save as folder for all of Open Office?
Thank you so very much..

Re: How do I change the default Save/Save As folder?
I have set the default folder. But when I want to save another document, the shown 'default is the directory the last file was saved to, not the 'directory I have set with Options. Does anyone know how to set this as it is supposed to be: show the set default folder every time?

From within OpenOffice Writer
1) go to Tools > Options.
2) Expand the OpenOffice section and highlight "Paths"
3) On the right side (where it says, "Paths used by OpenOffice"), highlight My Documents and click Edit (or just double-click My Documents).
4) The Select Path window opens where you can tell OpenOffice where to put your saved docs (or spreadsheets, etc.)
5) Click OK, OK, and you're good to go!

Thanks for the effort. That's what I have tried before, and it still does not work.

Try to check-in the option
Tools - Open/LibreOffice - General - Use Open/LibreOffice dialogue boxes
(...instead of the Windows related dialogue boxes.)
And fill-in the User data in Tools - Open/LibreOffice - User data
If it still not work, then you can try to reset (rename or delete) the User profile.
