I recently updated to LibreOffice 24.2 and I’m encountering something a bit frustrating regarding document recovery. I generally have several documents open at any one time and do not close LibreOffice when I turn off my computer. In the past I’ve always been able to rely on document recovery to automatically recover all documents that were open at shutdown when I next start my computer up, so I don’t have to go and manually open them, but since updating to 24.2 it only seems to recover documents that had unsaved changes at the time of shutdown - which for me is usually none of them.
I’m aware document recovery was enabled by default with this release - did its behaviour change as well to only recover unsaved documents? If so, is there any way to restore the old behaviour or otherwise get LibreOffice to automatically re-open all the documents that were open at last shutdown? I note the lock files still exist for all the documents that would previously have been recovered.
