Platform: Mac OS X 10.8.2 LibreOffice version: 3.5.5, 3.6.2
Original I ran LibreOffice 3.5.5 on my mac. Recently after an application crash during LibreOffice start up, thereafter every LO start up it always shows a dialogue box
"The last time you opened LibreOffice, it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows. Do you want to try to reopen its windows again?
If you choose not to reopen windows, you may have to open and position the windows yourself
[ Don't Reopen ] [ Reopen ]"
This box won't go away by repeatably clicking either buttons, nor it have a way to skip this (though I can create/open documents). Even under File menu, the item "Quit LibreOffice" is always dimmed - the only way to get rid of this is to open terminal and do a 'kill -9'
I've tried the following things, but none helped.. - Restart the system - removed my LibreOffice directory under ~/Library/Application Support/LibreOffice - removed the version 3.5.5 from the system, download and install a fresh copy of 3.6.2
Reported as → Bug 39007 - Persistent "Restore Windows" dialog won't disappear, disables key functionality
Status: RESOLVED FIXED NEW.
A workaround is described in "Comment #20" (based on "Comment #2").
See also → Restore Windows.
Open Finder Option-click the Go menu Choose Library from the menu to open the folder in the Finder. or enter (~/Library)
Click on the folder Saved Application State Delete the file "org.libreoffice.script.savedState"
Still evident in 4.0.3. Workaround involving deletion of file org.libreoffice.script.savedState works perfectly. :)
Would it be an alternative to upgrade from 3.5.5 to 3.5.7 and wait for 3.7.0 (to the best of my knowledge this 3.7 is renamed 4.0)? Or give 3.6.4 a try; this is supposed to be release any day from now.
