Former user, trying to recover important document

[Yas <ep...@gmail.com>]

Good morning,

I used OpenOffice back in 2016-2021 for writing stories. I am trying to see
if there is a possibility of me being able to recover a document that I
worked on quite often in OpenOffice if I no longer have the laptop that I
was typing it on. I moved away and some of my things got lost, so I don't
believe I will be able to recover that computer.

I'm not certain if OpenOffice has a cloud like Google Drive or OneDrive,
but it would help me out a lot if I could recover that document. I can
provide email addresses that I used while working with the product, if that
may be of assistance.

Thank you.

Unless you copied the document(s) to another medium, such as USB drive 
or had storage on a third party cloud service, your documents are gone. 
Apache OpenOffice does not have its own remote storage service.

If it wasn't saved somewhere else off that laptop, then no. OO creates a 
file, just like a file of a picture or pdf, if you don't have a backup 
of that laptop or saved somewhere off that laptop then your OO file just 
like any other file is gone.

You can use any cloud service to save OO files to and open them from 
there. So if you saved the document to some cloud account you can access 
and open that file.
