I'm not sure I did what you asked. I renamed the folder in which OpenOffice is located, the that is not the application file that starts the program. I don't know where to find that, it that's what I was supposed to rename. Anyway, this didn't work. It seemed to work for part of a day and then is started freezing again Now I can't even start it. I'll have to erase it and download a fresh copy.

I have a theory why this happens, but it would help to have confirmation. > Jim Baker > ________________________________ > From: Peter Kovacs <pe...@apache.org> > Sent: Sunday, June 4, 2023 9:54 AM > To: users@openoffice.apache.org <users@openoffice.apache.org> > Subject: Re: Open Office becoming impossible to use- bug ridden > > Have you tried to reset the profile? > Am 29.05.23 um 01:42 schrieb James Baker: >> In the last 2-3 months, it has become increasingly difficult to use both >> spreadsheets and text documents.
