In any case, it is best to do your actual editing in ODS format and treat the Microsoft formats as export-only (in case you need them for some reason).

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154591 --- Comment #5 from Julien Nabet --- Reinstalling from scratch won't recreate a LO profile from scratch. https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/FirstSteps#Corrupted_user_profile indicates: For details see "User profile" location and "Resolving corruption in the user profile" (backing up the existing profile is highly advised). "User profile" is a link towards https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile#Default_locations For Windows, it indicates: "Windows %APPDATA%\libreoffice\4\user (LibreOffice 4 to 7) %APPDATA%\libreoffice\3\user (LibreOffice 3) Note: on a normal Windows install, %APPDATA% resolves to C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming, at least on English versions of Windows Vista and later (part of the path may be localized on non-English versions). Thus, you can copy and paste %APPDATA%\libreoffice\4 in the File Explorer Address Bar and press ↵ Enter to access it directly. Or press ⊞ Win + r and write %appdata% and hit ↵ Enter." I gave a try to your file, it contains 21 sheets but all are empty. IMHO, you should use a backup file and convert your file info xlsx (if you need to stick to Excel) or rather ods (the native format of Calc). Then once you checked if everything is ok, you can keep on with this last file. About Microsoft Office, if you need to use xls or xlsx file, it might be a better choice for you. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154591 --- Comment #4 from John --- Created attachment 186898 --> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=186898=edit XLS file Everything had been stable to the last 10 days or so but today, anytime I edit and save this file, it is empty when I reopen it. I thought I might have a idea of what was going on as the file had been expanded to 20 sheets. I deleted 1 sheet to get it back to 19 but then it still happened today. Although the one in question today is back to 20. I don't know how. I haven't been able to figure out the path of the user profile. I did completely delete libr office and reload so I thought the user profile would be new. I'm out of ideas and think my only option is to purchase Microsoft Office.
