![]() These crashes are pretty damaging to getting anything done. Has anyone been near these circumstances? Have any further ideas for staying away from the crashes, even imperfect ideas, not guaranteed, like the one I set out in the previous paragraph? (In some sorts of work, these crashes can happen very frequently for me… to the extent that I start closing all open LO documents, restarting them BEFORE crashes, to see if the last “save” actually worked. When I always CLOSE something and then re-open it in the other mode when I want to go between modes, I seem to get the crashes less often. Another suspect for the cause of the crash is using the very convenient facility that LO offers that allows you to go back and forth between the design and run modes for things like forms and reports. Even though the machine freeze-up occurs later… a nasty little “gotcha”. I THINK the seeds of disaster are somehow sown during the save process. So far, touch wood, the “recovering previous session” process has always “worked”, although recent work on things (since the last SUCCESSFUL “save”) may have been lost. I’ve always (mostly) used the embedded database engines.)Īfter one of the crashes of which I speak, the next time you launch one of the LO apps, you’ll probably get the “LO has crashed…” dialog. I’m not sure if it only happens when I am editing Base forms, reports, etc… the crashing has slowed my progress into using Base for routine work! (They also happened, as described below, using Open Office/HSQL. I don’t think LO does this when I am using only Calc (not frequent) or Writer (used regularly). I have no other app that regularly brings all of Windows down. ![]() You won’t get a chance to save unsaved work. This will shut down any open LO document. If one doesn’t do anything, try another until they are all gone. Under “Processes” click in any Libre Office lines, and then do “End Task”… one at a time. (Ctrl-Alt-Del will give you a way to do that.) To get out without a full reset of my Windows… sometimes only otherwise possible with a long-press of the computer’s on/off button… open Task Manager. They rarely if ever happen if I am in any other component of LO. It may not be specific to these circumstances, but I seem to get hit by it most often when editing reports (and forms, tables, etc) in Base. And is extremely disruptive, if you don’t know how to recover from it. If I knew, I wouldn’t take them!īut it happens regularly. This is a poor question because I can’t give you the exact steps to get the crash. I shall now take great pleasure in uninstalling the thing.I work in Windows 10/ Libre Office 7.0.5.2 / Embedded Firebird… but similar problems go back years. Having spent half of last night trying to install WD Discovery and eventually succeeding, I opened it this morning only to find that it doesn’t recognize any connected USB devices any more, regardless of whether Product Improvement is switched on or off. What they don’t tell you is that “later” actually means “after rebooting”. However, if you kill the installation process using Task Manager and then immediately again try to install (with info-sharing allowed), you get an error message telling you that there is a problem and to try again later.
