[Dropped] Disappearing documents

Post by kotOpenOffice »

I have persisting problem with disappearing document what requires recovery.
The same problem I had on my older Microsoft Surface and now on the brand new one.
As per Microsoft technician I ask you to diagnose the problem.
Thank you.

Please give some details about the disappearing documents. Where are they stored, what leads you to conclude they have disappeared? Have they disappeared from the Recent Documents list in OpenOffice or from the storage location?

If documents are prompting for recovery when you restart OpenOffice, then you have a problem with Saving them. Perhaps you have not full rights in the destination folder, or else you are powering off your computer too speedily before the file(s) have been properly written and closed.
