Description ian.hankin 2013-09-11 15:02:08 UTC
Upon opening up open office, the a popup occurs stating that the last time open office was open, it was forced to quit while trying to restore windows, and gives me the options of either restoring windows or not restoring windows. The problem is that neither one of the buttons presented actually does anything when clicked, and the popup will not go away. In addition, many features of open office don't seem to work, such as opening any of the format menus, or generally doing anything other than typing and saving.

I had the same problem and resolved it by removing the "saved state" folder information (effected through the CleanMyMac software).
