Description Bill Stever 2015-02-11 18:41:43 UTC

Dear libreoffice, 

Two days ago I was no longer able to paste pictures into a labor office document. When you paste a box appears with a URL in it but no picture. I have no idea why this began to happen. It's very important for me to be able to do this so I am desperate. I can't think of a setting to try. I have deleted the program and reinstalled it and I still have the problem.  Please help. I need it now not at some future date but now.  I went on the Internet to see if others may know how to solve the problem; it is apparent that others have had the problem but the answers that were offered did not help.

Thank you,

Bill Stever

@Bill,

Since this sounds like a function that was working, and has stopped working for you without any action on your part--suggest you start by removing your per-user LibreOffice profile and allowing it to rebuild.

Your user profile would not normally be touched during a reinstall. Removal-rebuild will often clear these spurious issues up.

Post back with results... and if still hung up, we'll need additional details about your version of LibreOffice and your Windows instance.

@Bill,

Delete or rename the entire profile (on Windows its default location is):

C:\Users\<yourUserName>\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice

Here is a better Wiki ref for user profile manipulations
