Description: Whenever the system is forced-shutdown while the program is opened (eg power loss or force-reboot) the options in LibreOffice Calc rever to default. Macro security goes back to default settings, spellcheck underlining reverts to initial state, toolbar visibility goes back to defaults, etc. It does not happen if program is closed normally. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open LibreOffice Calc 2. Change some settings (ie Macro security level) 3. Force shutdown the system physically 4. Restart everything. Actual Results: All configuration has been reset to default Expected Results: All configuration should be as it was last time they were changed Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info:
Hello, on step 2, when you change the settings, do you close the options dialog?
Hi! Yes, the dialog is closed at step 2. If you then close the app and reopen it normally, the settings will have been properly saved and preserved as expected. But if at any point the "plug is pulled" on the system (brutal power cycle) then settings are wiped out and revert to default. It's as if the settings are loaded in memory on startup *and erased from disk*, and then saved back to disk on closing the app. Which means if system dies at any point in between, there's no hard copy kept anywhere.
Yes, probably it's the way LibreOffice is designed. I'm afraid we can't fix this behaviour. closing as RESOLVED WONTFIX
