Hi there - I was working on a five page document and had not got round to saving it. I absent-mindedly closed the page and when the option for saving came up I clicked on “Close Without Saving”. Is there any feasible way I can recover this document?
By the by, I have since went through the Options channels to autosave / back-up all unsaved work but would really like this document retrieved.
Cheers!
I think not, but try if there is any recoverable file in the temp folder, to see where it is Menu/Tools/Options/LibreOffice/Paths/Temporary files.
Hi there,
I saw that the question is closed but I would like to document the way I just solved in my computer.
I went through the the same path proposed (Menu/Tools/Options/LibreOffice/Paths) but I checked the path for the backups (in my case .config/libreoffice/4/user/backup). So what I did was to go to that folder (via terminal) and my doc was there.
Anyway, I don’t know if I could add to a closed question, but this steps just saved me.
best regards
This really works! Saved me from losing a lost document…The backup path was shown in the ‘Paths’ section under Tools>Options> LIbreoffice> Paths. My AppData folder was’nt there, but found it in View> Hidden since it was a hidden file. Wonder why LibreOffice didn’t itself tell me it had saved this file in backup when by PC crashed last time…anyway, this has saved me!
same as N_K had to look in hidden files but eventuall found it, m.a.riosv you are my saviour
Hi, I have the same problem but on a Mac and I can’t locate the Options menu. Help welcome
