I am trying to open Word with a blank document to write a letter. However, it will only open with a saved template of a fax I sent. I cannot get rid of that and get a blank.
I have tried uninstalling LibreOffice and reinstalling a fresh copy but the same fax keeps coming up.
How can I get rid of this?
For questions related to Word, go to the Microsoft support or a respective forum. We discuss LibreOffice here.
Which do you use? The main program or the swriter.exe?
Try opening the main program found in program files>libre office>program>soffice.exe. Swriter.exe is in the same location.
And LibreOffice’s word processor is called Writer, not Word. Just to keep from confusing people.
You may have set that template file as your default template. See https://help.libreoffice.org/Writer/Changing_the_Default_Template for help to restore a blank document as your default template.
