            Bug ID: 128240
           Summary: Please don't use resident temp directories!
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.7.1 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: pauldocka at gmail.com

Description:
LibreOffice uses C:\windows\temp directories to run and certain file
maintenance programs clear these directories.  LibreOffice then becomes
useless.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install LibreOffice
2.Run CCleaner, RevoUnistaller file cleaning, and Privacy Eraser


Actual Results:
LibreOffice is virtually wiped out and inop.

Expected Results:
No impairment


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
I installed LibreOffice 6.2.8.2 (x64) because I was sent files that only
LibreOffice or MS Publisher could open.  It worked great.  I also use file
cleaners like CCleaner, RevoUninstaller, and Privacy Eraser because the trash
that builds up in Windows 10 eventually causes a slowdown or an outright crash.
 After I ran these programs on my normal cleaning interval, quite a bit of
LibreOffice was gone because they clean out C:\Windows\Temp and that's where
LibreOffice has resident directories. I had to do a bit by bit clean and a
reinstall to get LibreOffice to run again.  Bad planning and it may cause your
users to drop.
