Description sov.info 2016-07-12 17:18:25 UTC
Description: I can use LibreOffice programs (Writer, Draw, Calc) for opening various files. When these files opened, a hidden system duplicat creates in file's directory and after closing the program it should successfully be deleted. However, this not always happens and this file doesn't deleted.

This only happens, if LibreOffice crashed. Did it happen after a crash?

No. I close documents normally, but if i open several docs (~15), the probability of appearance of this unused file is higher.

There are "stealth crashes", but now with the crash reporter of 5.2 they can be seen better: bug 100870 is an example.
Maybe you could install 5.2 RC2 and try to reach your .lock file situation and hopefully it turns out to be a crash: http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/

I install LibreOffice 5.2.0.3 x86. with russian HelpPack.
I could make it crash with doc files http://storage7.static.itmages.ru/i/16/0729/h_1469761823_7308030_c412284767.png

After clicking on OK, program closes. and creates files .~lock (for example, .~lock.tabak.doc#)
containing path, PC name and date

,admin-nb/EAGLE,admin-nb,29.07.2016 07:11,file:///C:/Users/EAGLE/AppData/Roaming/LibreOffice/4;

After reopening program, i choose not to recover documents. So these lock files deletes. OK.

I could make program crash with 100% probability by opening 15 pptx-files, and lock files not always deletes.

On 5.2.0.3 version i don't see any temp files starting with $ symbol yet (as it was on stable version 5.1.4.2)

It seems, lock files after doc-files does not always deletes, too. I just noticed it.

Aha, did you investigate the difference between opening files from Windows explorer versus from LibreOffice? If you are sure it is the same, you can close this report as a duplicate of 43883.

Yeah, it probably the same, and my bug (trash in directories after opening files in Explorer) is a continuation of bug 43883. But i try opening my ppt files (those that crash LO with 100% probability) in program (not by explorer) - and lock files still here , in directory. But this happens only after program crash and after i refuse to made any recovery to files. Lock files should be deleted anyway, but it doesn't happen, right?

No, lock file do not get deleted after a crash. Let's close as dupe, then.
