Description Aldebaran 2021-04-22 09:19:28 UTC
Hello,
On closing, the file did not retain backups while writing.
I have enabled the backup every 1 minute for safety.
When closing, he asks me if I want to save when he should have done so.
When I say no, to see, and I close, if I open the file it didn't save anything.
I have to redo everything.
I think he keeps this in memory and writes, if I confirm manual save.
Also, every time I start an odt file, libreoffice asks me to recover a file.
I am linux Debian Buster.
Libreoffice 7.0.4
cordially
Aldebaran

What you have configured to save automatically each 1 minute was "AutoRecovery Information" [1]. It is documented to "save the information needed to restore all open documents in case of a crash". It is stored in LibreOffice's Backups directory [2], and it is expected that this information is only used during the editing session; if this session is suddenly interrupted by a crash/power outage, then the next time you launch LibreOffice, it is used to restore the information.

But when you close the document normally, this information is removed in any case: both when you save the document, or when you reject the save prompt. The latter case simply means that user has changed their mind, and does not want to keep the changes.

Try resetting your user profile (use Safe Mode for that, available from Help menu) [3].
