            Bug ID: 153112
           Summary: Macros lost - suggest keeping a backup of user
                    profiles
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.2.4.1 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

When I went to use Calc today, I found that all my macros had disappeared,
along with at least one key bind. My shortcuts to my macros, that I had added
to the tools menu, remained.

I found that this file:
C:\Users\Toby\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice\4\user\basic\Standard\Module1.xba
had been reset to just have an empty Sub Main.

I don't know what happened, or when - if is was a clean up after a crash, or as
part of an upgrade, it happened silently.

I suggest:
a) LO reports to the user if it resets any part of their profile
b) LO keeps a backup of user profiles, perhaps on a schedule, and certainly on
upgrade, so that if a profile needs to be wiped, a backup can be used instead.

I am on v7.2.4.1
