Software: Libre Office – Fixing the Restore Windows Bug in OSX

When using Libre Office it appears that if you “force” quite Libre, you can also plan on seeing a “Restore Windows” pop-up that will not go away.

To fix this:

  1. Got to “Finder”
  2. Click Go
  3. Press your “option” key and the word “Library” will appear
  4. Click on Library
  5. Scroll down to “Saved Application state” and Click Double Click
  6. Find “org.libreoffice.script.savedState” and move it to the Trash Can
Also, you can write an applet in Apple Script to do this for you by replacing “IDENTIFER” with the identifier of the application:
do shell script “rm ‘~/Library/Saved Application State/”IDENTIFER”.savedState'”
