I remember there was a way to ignore this message and go on to the application. However it tried to restore a file and not the program itself.
A solution is to go to the Application Data/User/OpenOffice.org/ and rename that folder. That will delete the temporary file about trying to restore OpenOffice. On Mac here is a blogpost that does the same. http://www.tonyzampogna.com/2012/01/07/openoffice-restore-windows-popup/ I think is less drastic to just delete the temporary file since deleting the whole folder will get rid of your custom settings (if you have any).
