Bug ID: 128240
Summary: Please don't use resident temp directories!
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.2.7.1 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
LibreOffice uses C:\windows\temp directories to run and certain file
maintenance programs clear these directories. LibreOffice then becomes
useless.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install LibreOffice
2.Run CCleaner, RevoUnistaller file cleaning, and Privacy Eraser
Actual Results:
LibreOffice is virtually wiped out and inop.
Expected Results:
No impairment
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
I installed LibreOffice 6.2.8.2 (x64) because I was sent files that only
LibreOffice or MS Publisher could open. It worked great. I also use file
cleaners like CCleaner, RevoUninstaller, and Privacy Eraser because the trash
that builds up in Windows 10 eventually causes a slowdown or an outright crash.
After I ran these programs on my normal cleaning interval, quite a bit of
LibreOffice was gone because they clean out C:\Windows\Temp and that's where
LibreOffice has resident directories. I had to do a bit by bit clean and a
reinstall to get LibreOffice to run again. Bad planning and it may cause your
users to drop.
