I am trying to open a new blank document, but each time I go to file > New > Text document it opens a copy of a already finished text document. I cannot get a blank document. What am I doing wrong?
It sounds as if you might have saved the earlier document as a default template.
- Save the document to its normal expected location if it isn’t found there
- Click File > Templates > Manage templates.
- In the dialogue that opens, look for a file with a green tick (named Wrong in the image below). Right click it and select Reset Default to have the usual LibreOffice default template. Or select another template, right click and choose Set as default to make that the default template.
If you have saved the file elsewhere you could instead click Delete
Many thanks. Your solution works perfectly.
