Bug ID: 145256
Summary: Provide a button to let users clear (reset) their user
profile
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Not sure if this feature has been requested or not since when I search "reset
user profile" in bugzilla all bugs would be shown...
In some situations, for example, when I upgraded my LibreOffice from 7.1 to
7.2, some strange behaviors happened. After resetting the user profile all the
behaviors were normal.
Sometimes when users asked for help with similar situations, we would suggest
them to try resetting user profiles first. We have a wiki page to tell users
how to reset user profile
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile
However for some (actually most) users they are not able to (don't want to?) do
it manually.
Is it possible to add a button in, for example, Tools - Options - Advanced, to
let users directly reset (of course with confirmation and a backup) user
profile and relaunch LibreOffice? This way we don't need to teach users how to
find the user profile paths (unless they want to recover their user profiles,
but IMO such recovery is very rarely performed).
Actual Results:
N/A
Expected Results:
N/A
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
