Open MyComputer
Goto my C:\~\someDirectory\myFiles
Start OO by clicking on myFile.sxw
View the file, make some changes, save exit
or Just view the file and exit
Normally exit by selecting X, but have also exited using the menu.
Go back to C:\~\sameDirectory in MyComputer
Go back a directory ..\sameDirectory
1) Select the directory using a right click
scroll down the menu and Select delete
2) Select the directory with a left click
and press the 'Delete' key
Both of these will 'attempt' to delete the file but,
Windows comes back with a pop-up:
_____________________________________________________
'ERROR DELETING FILE OR FOLDER'
Cannot delete myFile: Access denied
Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected
and that the file is not currently in use
_____________________________________________________
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del
Select Task Manager
Find soffice.exe in my process list
Select End Process
This remove soffice.exe and soffice.bin
Go back to ../myDirectory
Delete it
Success
I do this every time i have viewed a file in OO and need to delete it, or the
directory it's in. I have OO running in my quick start, not sure if this has
anything to do with it. I sometimes don't delete the directory for ages and
still get this problem.
NOTE: When i delete, i have no OO open or active apart from the quick-launch in
the bottom-right of the screen
Hope this has been of help.
I think it's awsome to have an Office Suite that is Open Source and beats MS
hands down.
