Start OOo from the command line with the parameter "-norestore" So,

soffice -norestore

Also, take a look at this link. The information is old, so I do not know if it still applies:

I am not able to concentrate on lenghty instructions for medical reasons.

Every time I open the program to maintain a document I get a recovery screen on which I am unable to start recovery because the button isn't visible and refuses be moved onto the screen. Openoffice is now unusable. I have deleted the document converned and reloaded open office to no avail. Openoffice has to be cancelled to continue with anything else. Can you help? Link me to the answerl?p.
I have tried your help pages but find them huge and totally confusing.
