Hi :) In Windows "Disk clean up" might do it. It does a scan and then shows you a list of different types of things it could get rid of. It's often worth keeping some of the things, such as "set-up files".
Ubuntu janitor does much the same although there is a better one in "Ubuntu Tweaks" which you can get onto Ubuntu with these commands sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak I suspect that most distros have some standard tools to do routine decluttering like that and some will have it in some sort of "Control Panel" type of thing so you can do a whole load of things all at once from some central point. You are not the first one to have that sort of problem so tools are already out there Regards from Tom :) >________________________________ > From: Steve Edmonds <[email protected]> >To: Gordon Burgess-Parker <[email protected]> >Cc: [email protected] >Sent: Wednesday, 14 August 2013, 10:38 >Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] Document locked on other system > > > >On 14/08/13 7:26 PM, Gordon Burgess-Parker wrote: >> On 14/08/13 08:13, Steve Edmonds wrote: >>> >>> There is probably a lock file in the same directory as the one you >>> are editing.
