If you mean that the documents no longer show on OpenOffice's /File /Recent 
Documents menu item, this is only a shortcut to the documents on your computer. 
For whatever reason - usually an improper close down of OpenOffice, perhaps 
caused by a Windows 10 upgrade forcing itself on your computer - this shortcut 
list has been damaged/erased; fortunately the documents on this list should 
still exist in whatever location they were saved on your computer. 

It should be possible to start OpenOffice (perhaps by an entry on the Programs 
button?) then use the navigation buttons on the /File /Open dialog to navigate 
to the locations in which the files were saved.  As you Open each of these 
files in /File /Open, they will once again appear on Recent Documents.

It is unfortunately the case that any documents open at the time of such a 
forced Windows upgrade may be damaged, usually beyond repair.  Use the methods 
in this Tutorial - How to find and un-delete AOO temporary files at
https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=71&t=85038]
to attempt to find and recover such damaged files.

If you are not familiar with computers, seek local informed help as soon as 
possible to employ the above methods and tutorial.

Spreadsheet 2018 not opening

2018-08-28 Thread alan cence
I have used Open Office spreadsheets to keep track of my expenses for the last 
3 years. I tried to open this year's spreadsheet today, but it asked me to 
register with my first and last name, and initials. When I tried to open the 
spreadsheet after that,  I got a message saying that it was locked for editing 
by "unknown user." When I tried to open read only, only gibberish apoeared. 
What can I do to recover the spreadsheet that I have been using for this 
year?Many thanks,Alan Cence
