I opened this and it is the old version of LO, as you might have guessed, and seemed to still work entirely independently of LO5.1.Īnyway, I decided to have a go at using the ‘open with’ command on a document, then browsing for the LO4 folder on my PC and using this to open the document and it worked. Unfortunately, having tried everything you suggested with the admin permissions on the documents themselves, none of it worked.įortunately, whilst searching for LO on my PC to try and carry out the profile renaming I discovered a folder called LibreOffice4. Thank you very much for your detailed reply, Peter. You said that you had reinstalled LO – this keeps the user profile so if there is a problem there it would not have changed it. Open LO which will create a new profile and see if you can now open the problem files.

This will enable you to get back to that profile. Rename the profile (located at username/AppData/Roaming/LibreOffice/(version number)/user) to say olduser.

If your username does have Full Control it may be a problem with your LO profile. If your username is not listed report back on what users are listed. With your username highlighted click on Edit and select Full Control. If they are not ticked then I suggest you first make a copy of the file and operate on that copy. If they are see my comment at the end of this posting. All the items except Special Permissions should be ticked. Is the username you are logged in when you get this problem listed? If so click on that username to show the permissions. This will show the Users/groups who have access to the file. Right click on one of the files that you have a problem with and select Properties. You will need to be logged in as a user with admin permissions to do the following. Have you made any changes to your PC before this problem arose? Adding or modifying programs? Do you have problems with files that use other programs such as opening images? The message “the requested operation requires elevation' in this context usually indicates a problem with file ownership – that the Windows user you are using does not own the file or does not have the required permissions on the file.

It appears that has the same problem!! There is a similar posting here.
