            Bug ID: 123470
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: Files cannot be saved/edited in DESKTOP location (and

Just recently I have started experiencing problems with openoffice documents.
It seems that for some reason OpenOffice doesn't allow me to either properly
edit files that are located on the desktop (C:\users\...\desktop\) as I can
only open a copy or in read-only mode; or save a newly created document to any
desktop location (even subfolders are affected). I'm being told that I have no
permissions to carry out this task and I should contact the administrator. I
have done a lot of searching on open office forums, but were unable to find a
fix to my problem. Let me post some details:

There are no *.lock files present
Folders are not Read-only
There are no restrictions in Properties/Security tab, everything is in "allow"
Files can be freely copied, moved and edited and saved with other,
non-openoffice, applications in the abovementioned folders
I tried using an application which terminates all "handles" connected with
particular folders - there were none present.

I run Windows 7 pc with OpenOffice 4.0.1

I tried resetting user profile, but it made no difference.
