Hi :) Ahh the back-ups are usually stored in UserProfile/backups (the folder called "backups" in your user-profile). this guide hopefully shows where the UserProfile is in your Operating System although 3.5.0 has added a folder just in front of ".libreoffice" to make it ".config/.libreoffice" or something like that.

I had: x always create backup copy x save auto-recover-info every 1 Min. One can see, that LO is regularly saving by the moving bar. However this saved information apparently is not used for the recover process. When after a system crash, unexpected shutdown or similar LO starts with a window asking whether the user wants to recover the files, I answer yes, recovery runs and LO claims to be successful. However the "recovered" file contains old information. The last information is contained in /tmp/..../0.odt and can manually be used to restore to the latest condition. With respect to the developers of LO. Walther Am Donnerstag, 8.
