> Hello. > Open office crashed and has locked / coded a very important document. > I've had a few people try to retrieve it and it is seemingly impossible. > The document was saved before it crashed, just was open at the time. How > is the best way to retrieve this? I've attached the files. > Best Regards, > Rachel Hi Rachel, At first glance it seemed the solution would be to close Apache OpenOffice and delete the lock file .~lock.tracy emin.odt# Unfortunately this will not fully resolve your issue because the actual tracy emin.odt document has been totally corrupted and is unrecoverable by normal means. You will find some guidance for recovering corrupted files in the tutorial here: https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=71&t=85038for Kind Regards Dave --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
