i’m tring to access some important spreadsheets that i created on libre office and last used about a month ago. when trying to open i get a message:/Users/janicethomas/Google Drive/FLOW 2020.ods does not exist.
how do i recover these files?
Cite from your title: … error message this user does not exist…
This is not what the error tells: It says that the **file** `FLOW 2020.ods` on storage device `/Users/janicethomas/Google Drive/` does not exist. Try `Finder` (from the path name I'd conclude that you are on macOS) and search your system for file `FLOW 2020.ods` . If it is not in Google Drive - ask Google why it is not there, if you use Google sync.
answer from @jaYtee (answer deleted):
i found it! although i checked th trash early on, by search and by scroll, it wasn’t there. somethow i found it in a trash file in my recents folder and was able to restore it from there.
