Oh, that's easy.
Send the file to a trusted friend and have him/her unravel it for you.

Re: Windows 11 Crash - OpenOffice Runs - Not Responding State

[David Stuhr]

Hello,

Yes, I have used End Task in Task Manager to quit OpenOffice and then 
restarted  Windows 11. There was no change in the behavior of OpenOffice 
after the restart.


I downloaded OpenOffice from the web, uninstalled OpenOffice and 
re-installed OpenOffice. Everything is back to "normal behavior" of 
OpenOffice. Am now able to create, save and reopen OpenOffice text and 
spreadsheet documents.


Thanks for your assistance.

OpenOffice runs but I cannot create new text or spreadsheet documents. Again 
Task Manager shows that OpenOffice is in a Not Responding state. It appears

I have 3/4 different backups so I am not concerned about loosing the 
spreadsheet data.

How do I get OpenOffice in a state that I can create new text and spreadsheet 
documents.

Thanks.

Opening an excel file that is password protected

[John Jay]

Is there a way to open an excel file that has been password protected. I no 
longer have Excel so I can't remove the password that way. When I try to open 
the file in Spreadsheet it opens up a filter selection box. I have chosen 
several of the excel formats but nothing seems to work.

Thanks

Windows 11 Crash - OpenOffice Runs - Not Responding State

Hello,

Using OpenOffice 4.1.12 on a new Windows 11 PC. I had running on my 
Thunderbird mail client, my FireFox browser and OpenOffice adding data 
to a spreadsheet.


Stepped away from my PC and when I returned Thunderbird, FireFox and 
OpenOffice were not running, Windows 11 was. Restarted Thunderbird, 
FireFox and OpenOffice. OpenOffice attempted to recover the spreadsheet. 
Task Manager showed that OpenOffice was Not Responding.


OpenOffice runs but I cannot create new text or spreadsheet documents. 
Again Task Manager shows that OpenOffice is in a Not Responding state. 
It appears that something is putting OpenOffice in the Not Responding 
state. I have restarted Windows 11 but OpenOffice opens in a Not 
Responding state.

spreadsheet data.


How do I get OpenOffice in a state that I can create new text and
