It often happens on an upgrade, particularly when the Windows version changes, that the OpenOffice user profile is or becomes corrupt. Most problems with instability of OpenOffice can be cured by deleting or renaming the OpenOffice user profile. A new profile with default settings, is generated on the next start of OpenOffice; this cures most instability problems. If you are using Windows do this by: Close OpenOffice and the Quickstarter. Open File Explorer. Copy and paste %appdata%\OpenOffice\4 in the File Explorer Address Bar and press Enter. Rename the "user" folder. Start OpenOffice. -- Rory O'Farrell <ofarr...@iol.ie> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
