Hi
I've used LibreOffice for a number of years trouble-free. I have a
laptop and use windows, not Mac.
Last weekend I downloaded to my laptop a new application for
downloading music from YouTube; it didn't work and I proceeded to
uninstall it through start/control panel/uninstall. This seemed to
work as the thing disappeared from the list and the desktop ikon
removed itself. However, a couple of days later I used LibreOffice,
went into my documents list and noticed there was a file with the name
of the application I had uninstalled. I thought that shouldn't be
there and I don't want it so I highlighted it and hit delete. That
immediately changed my full list of files and documents into
gobbledygook made up of caps and numbers so I can't identify files or
docs when I want them. I can't see a way to reverse this. I can still
access my proper documents list through Start and Documents where it
still comes up as it should. But opening LibreOffice and then
Documents I just get the gobbledygook.
Can you please help? I'd be very grateful (I'm still on LibreOffice
3.6 and don't want to move to the new 4. until I've sussed this problem)
Many thanks
Mike Brookes
Hi.
Do you have a restore point you can go back to, prior to the software
you installed.
