OpenOffice creates a profile for each user with configurations and

reinstallation, or upgrade, the profile is intentionally not affected

Same result trying to open a file created before I had in uninstall.
(Files would open, but could do nothing with them = program (not responding).
It's likely that your problem is in the profile. If you delete that
- or rename it, so that you can resurrect it if necessary -
OpenOffice should create you a clean one next time you open
it. Quite where it is depends on your operating system, of course -
but you have kept that a secret! You appear to be using Windows 7. Try this:
o Close OpenOffice and the Quickstarter.
o Navigate to C:\Users\<login-name>\AppData\Roaming\OpenOffice.org\3,
where <login-name> is the name you log in with. (Some of those
folders are hidden by default.)
o Rename the "user" folder within it.
o Start OpenOffice to test.
I trust this helps.
