> Good morning all!
>  
> I am looking for some guidance/advice/help.  My wife created a
> libreoffice document and when she went back to open it it opened but
> with a dialog box offering "force quit" or "wait".  Waiting just hung.
>  Force quit dropped back to the desktop.
>  
> In an effort to fix this problem, I did a quick internet search and
> tried the following:
>  
> killall soffice.bin
>  
> nothing happened... next
>  
> rm -rf~/.config/libreoffice
>  
> The second command I ran twice as I left a space in front of the .config
 
>  
> I next opened libreoffice which took its time.  It opened but showed no
> files available to open.
>  
> I restarted and it welcomed me to ubuntu like a new install. Now appears
> there are no files on the disk.
>  
> As you might imagine, this constitutes a catastrophic fail on my part.
>  Any thoughts, advice, or assistance would be much appreciated.
>  
> Thanks.  Mike
