Description: This is very frustrating, almost each time I start LibreOffice i have this dialog which ask me to recover some document I forget about long time ago. The document is not even connectetd to what I want to open, why user is forced to make a decision about something he most likely don't care? Please remove this, as it is furtstrating and destroying the user experience. It is just stupid behavior of LibreOffice to do this at startup. Please if you insist on having this recovery option, please move it to some menu option, and don't every block opening file because of this. This is not smart, it gives very frustrating expewrience to user, no other program does it, please... Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create file, do not save it, quit LO 2. Start LO to open some file 3. The dialog "recovery" starts and prevents startup, and frustrates the user, destroing his experience Actual Results: The "recovery" dielog should pop up during startup and destroy user experience Expected Results: The "recovery" dielog should not pop up, especially when opening not related file. Please remove it or move to other menu, do not force user to take action just becuase He is opening some random file, not even related. the user is thinking about other things, don't force him to solve problem which might not even exist for him. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: PLEASE DO THIS, THAT IS THE MOST WAINTED FEATURE FOR LIBRE OFFICE FOR THE WHOLE TIMES.
LibreOffice saves automatic recovery information *by default*, and that is configurable in Options->Load/Save->General. If someone does no care about the recovery of files opened when the program had crashed, the user is free to disable this. When the function is enabled, it is the correct behavior to prompt user about recovery of the data they asked (as setting tells it) to store the recovery information. If your LibreOffice always asks you to recover something, it might be a problem (bug) that makes it crash during its shutdown; then it needs to debug and fix *that* - but that needs investigation to find out what reproduction steps result in the crashes. Or maybe your user profile needs resetting to drop some stale information. Closing WONTFIX as is. If you have the problem with unexpected crashes at shutdown, please file a separate bug report with reproducing steps. Thank you.
