Bug ID: 160988
Summary: Incomplete recovery after crash
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.6.4.1 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: framework
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: u20230...@gmail.com
I had opened multiple Writer documents and a Calc document when LibreOffice
crashed. As I had auto-save enabled, LibreOffice offered to recover all the
documents when restarting it.
However after recovery had finished the first (writer) document has stats like
"not yet recovered" while the rest has the check mark (recovered successfully)
set.
At that point there was no way to retry recovery or so, so I continued.
The first document showed yesterday's (time of last save) contents, and
multiple hours of editing seemed gone!
So I closed the document and re-opened it, hoping recovery would be suggested
(that's what Emacs would do BTW). But the document opened without further
notice, showing yesterday's content.
Fortunately (in this context only) LibreOffice crashed again while working on
the Calc document, and (rather) surprisingly LibreOffice suggested to recover
the document that wasn't recovered before. This time it succeeded, and only
little of today's work was lost.
It seems that auto-recovery is not as reliable as it should be, and there
should be an option to re-try the recovery if is shows a "not yet completed" at
the end of automatic recovery.
