Att: Shari Lynn Smith Thanks for your very detailed instructions to be able to open my documents and to find them after they are saved. However, I have 4.1.6 (not 14) and I wonder if I should download the 4.1.14? When you say to 'quit' open office, the only option close to that would be to delete. I'm afraid to delete it, as I have journals on my computer back 35 years, and they are all in .odt format. When I open windows explorer, I did not see the folders app to 'view hidden folders' but I did "view hidden items". If you advise me to install Apache Open Office 4.1.14, should I uninstall 4.1.6 first? I've been typing from a handwritten journal 1983-87--and yesterday I retyped 7 pages that were lost from the last two days, and right after I saved it, I tried to open it, and the only one by that name that would open was missing a whole month of 7 typed pages. In an effort to open it, I now have 6 folders of the same name in 'recent files' and they all tell me 'The requested operation requires elevation." I have been unable to find my user information. but maybe if I have the later edition it would work. Again, thank you so much--I've really made a mess of things in my new computer, and need a lesson on organizing. I'm having trouble seeing what is on the C drive and what is on my flash drive--I'd like to move all the flash drive docs over.. II await your advice.

I too get frustrated sometimes, but then I remind myself it's free and does what I want & need. Also keep in mind that anyone who is helping you is doing so as a volunteer. None of us are employees of OpenOffice. If the above doesn't help, try to remember exactly what you were doing when it crashed. Are you in Cal, Writer, and what was the last action you took. It could be a bug. Shari On 4/19/2023 1:49 PM, Dave Mortenson wrote: > I have a home office, no administrator. How am I to proceed.
