Document Recovery

Post by ole3475 »

Last night I was building a table in database and then while it was loading I decided to use wordprocessor. I deleted the file I was creating and now everytime I try to open up openoffice it says that it's trying to do a document recovery. How do I fix this so that I can start using open office again?

Thanks for your help and for reading this post.

Have you tried canceling the recovery, or just allowing OOo to recover, then close the "recoverd" document(s) and exit cleanly?

Yes it is just like it's locked up. It won't do anything and I can't open up any of my openoffice documents at all. I don't know what to do.

Maybe this helps: [Solved] Stuck in Document Recovery

ole3475, I suggest that you remove your e-mail address from your first post (or change it to something like "name <at> domain.com") by using the Edit button.
Otherwise it could become an easy prey for spambots.
