Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 128274
User/Unregistered User

Recently had my laptop restart do to dying on a long trip, usually no big deal because any files open can be recovered. This time, however, upon reopening Apache I'm greeted with the 'register user' message. At first, I was confused, relaunched the app but still faced the same message. Moved forward and entered the necessary information, the same information put in when I initially started using the app. Attempting to open files that I've created I am met with another message box, this time saying said files were created or last edited by an unknown user and could only be open as read-only or as a copy for editing. Now I'm not sure what happened, little worried maybe this is more than just an odd bug that cropped up at an odd time but want to try to fix it. I could just as easily reacquire all my files as copies and retain them by saving them as new edited files but that's time consuming especially if the original problem comes up again. Anyone else have any problems like this or is it just some odd occurrence with little rhyme or reason or perhaps something doing more with my PC than the app itself?
