I am sorry that you are having problems.  I presume that it is some
particular file that you are unable to open rather that all files.
Right?

We can best help you if you file a bug report.  The bug submission
assistant is at <https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/bug/>.  The need
for you to create an account is a nuisance, but we *do* need to be
able to contact you.  Feel free to add me, lo_bugs@iseries-guru.com,
as a CC in the bug report.

It will help a lot if you attach the problematic file to the bug
report.  If necessary, you can disguise the contents by changing all
letters to x's, or some such thing.

Ah, that sounds like Windows.  Be sure to tell us the version of
Windows.

You may find it helpful to update your LibreOffice.  Within 4.2,
version 4.2.1 is current, and 4.2.2 is available as a pre-release.
Within 4.1, version 4.1.5 is offered; it should be pretty stable.

Terry.
