Robert, Thank you. That helped a lot. I had looked in Roaming and didn't see it, but maybe because it was all white. My File Manager is dark background.
I have renamed OpenOffice to OpenOffice.old and opened it, and it didn't crash. I didn't have many settings, so I'm not going to stress over it. I'll have to find the files I had open, but that's another issue. Thank you for providing me with information relevant to Open Office. I love to be able to ask questions and get information from this terrific, supportive, mail list. Linda On Sat, Aug 12, 2023 at 9:21 AM W. Robert J.
