Get Bleachbit (even the Portable version should work)

Scroll down to LibreOffice, check the History box, run Preview (just to make
sure there are no errors) and then Clean.

I tested this on my Windows XP Pro machine running LO 3.5.1.2 and although I
didn't have your problem, it did clean the History and all other settings
seem to be untouched.

If this fails you can always use the brute force approach...

Go to  "%APPDATA%\LibreOffice\3\user" then go up one level and rename the
folder user to user.old (or something else)

Please report your findings ;)
