simply right-click on the system tray icon and select the last menu option: "Exit quickstarter". do a ~]$ pgrep soffice.bin to make sure there is no instance running. If this commands returns a number, then this is the number that identifies the process, and yo have to kill that process: ]$ kill -kill PROCESS_NUMBER or ]$ kill -kill `pgrep soffice.bin` Then you can safely change the configuration file: go to your OOo user directory. Vanilla OOo, and some distros (like Fedora) use the default directory: ~/.openoffice.org/3/user IIRC for go-oo it may be: ~/.ooo/3/user you can check the right value in the Options dialog (menu Tools - Options - OpenOffice.org - Paths), for example, my Path for AutoText is /home/ariel/.openoffice.org/3/user/autotext this means the user dir. is a hidden folder located at /home/ariel/.openoffice.org/3/user/ Then go to ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office and look at the Recovery.xcu file, sure you will find in it an entry in the RecoveryList node, this indicates there is file to recover (in your case, your the property "Title" has for value Untitled 1 ). If you know something about XML, remove every node in the RecoveryList. If not, simply remove the whole Recovery.xcu file. This should fix your issue. If not, please report back.
