Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 124382
Unexpectedly Quit and neither the Don't Reopen or Reopen works cannot close program or reinstall
Last modified: 2014-03-08 21:07:17 UTC
Open Office gives a pop up window that states: "The last time you opened Open Office it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows. Do you want to try to open its window again?" It gives the options of: Don't Reopen or Reopen Neither does anything. There is no cancel and then the Open Office program will not quit, will not save as, will not export a file, etc. Force quit and restart does not resolve the problem. If you delete the program, trash it, empty trash can and then reboot, you cannot re-install the program. During the reinstall process you get the pop up again and the whole process freezes. You now have no way to use Open Office.
Duplicated of Bug 119006 Bug known since 3.4, http://www.openoffice.org/development/releases/3.4.1.html#AOO3.4.1ReleaseNotes-KnownIssues On recent versions of Mac OS X it might happen, especially after a "Force quit", that the following error message appears: "Restore Windows - The application OpenOffice.org was forced to quit while trying to restore its windows. Do you want to try to restore its windows again?". If you cannot get rid of it: Option-click the "Go" menu; choose "Library" from the menu to open the folder in the Finder; click on the folder "Saved Application State"; delete the file "org.openoffice.script.savedState".
