Bug ID: 164092
Summary: User files, I give up!
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.2.5.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
To LibreOffice
LO is a great program, thank you. But, I keep loosing my person info in LO user
files. I have been confused in the past (>10 years) about how my personal setup
is kept!? I believe when I updated LO it (was, should) keep all my
Libreoffice/4/use, file info??? But, I have bought other, used, laptops, then
installing LO on a different laptop and lost my info? Also, I use 2 different
laptops, which gives proof that I am running 2 different LO user files. LO does
not know it is me, when I ask for a new update of LO! I used to copy user file,
which I often forgot to do, therefor I missed how I had LO setup. And then I
forget at times, how to set it up again! Therefor, I just gave up.
If LO would ask users, if they would like to keep there user file which
is kept in there personal user name, at LO, and asked to back it up manually or
better automatically daily or weekly (as iphones do), we could use LO on
different laptops knowing it would be setup as we like it. I know this my be
asking for a lot, but just thought you may want to know users may be giving up
on user files, as I have. Thank you again for such a powerful program.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install LO on my new laptop. Forgot to copy my old user file.
2.My personal user file is gone on new laptop!
3.I forget how I setup LO again, so I spend much time trying to set it up
again! Therefor i just give up.
Actual Results:
Laptop is stolen. With my only LO user file.
Expected Results:
Buy new laptop, install LO, with my stolen user file, which LO has backup for
me, yesterday.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
Backup my user files, daily. And know it is me when I ask for an updated LO
install version.
