LibreOffice Crash

Hello,

Libre Office crashes constantly, even while I'm working, and I have to recover files each time, which is always random in terms of its last update. It's too tedious. I'm considering switching software. But maybe someone knows where the bug is.

Thanks in advance for your contribution.

    Hello,

    I believe I understand that this is a recurring request for recovery. These are .~lock files that are created as soon as a document is opened.
    These .~lock files are hidden files .~lock.FILENAME.odt# or for calc .~lock.FILENAME.ods#
    designed for reading the file over a network.
    In principle, these files close with the document, but in case of a power cut, corruption, etc., these .~lock files persist.
    You just need to delete them.

    The file .~lock.FILENAME.odt# is found at the same level (in the same folder...) as the file that created it.
    Sometimes a .~lock file is also created in the Profile that should also be deleted. (It is deleted de facto in a profile purge).
    So, if deleting the .~lock file is not enough, purge the user profile

      Hello, I am carefully keeping your advice. For now, I applied the method proposed by Panth33ra. We'll see how it goes.

      Thank you.

    Hello

    I have taken note of your responses and applied them. Unfortunately, to no avail. The problem is not resolved.

    In the end, I ran a "scannow" that detected and "fixed" corrupted files.

    They have become inaccessible and thus lost, but oh well.

    I hope there will be a bit more stability now.

    Thank you

    Hello,

    To my knowledge, SFC / scannow is used to repair Windows system files.


    I invite you to search for the files ;~lock and delete them, through hidden folders, and by purging the profile.

    For your information
