My best advice is slower close down, but if you want to do something else and look for another cause and/or solution, that is your privilege.įred22 wrote:Wouldn't AOO have to have been open just before the pc was shut down for this to be the problem? Last night I had everything working fine but this morning the red lines are back and as soon as I rename a folder O.O. I've been used OO Writer daily for ten years the very few occasions I have lost my spellcheck have been caused by power outages (equivalent to over-hasty power off). The appdata process finds the user profile renaming this to user.old means that OO cannot find a user profile and generates a new one, with default values.

You only have to be overhasty in close down once for the red lines to occur they are a sign that the OO user profile has not been properly written. In fact, the last time I had the problem someone mentioned another method for resolving this issue. Are you familiar with the procedure I mention? (putting "appdata" phrase in search box and changing the name of the folder.) I need someone who is familiar with this concept. Besides, even if it didn't shut down properly it wouldn't cause new folders to appear. When you have finished with your computer, close O.O., then go through the formal computer shut down procedure and wait for a few seconds after the OK message for all disk activity to cease before powering off or snapping the lid shut if a laptop. The hard disk then queues this information internally, sorts it into order of the areas on disk for which it is destined, then makes one movement of the heads across the disk to write the information in one pass.

Modern computers do not write their files directly to disk instead these are queued in a software write buffer and written out after a short delay(a few seconds). RoryOF wrote:You are probably powering off or making the computer hibernate too quickly, before OO's internal housekeeping is finished.
