IS THERE ANY WAY TO RETRIEVE MY FILES?????? 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. -- 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
