When I launch LO it hangs with a white window showing

Windows 8, java: jre-8u231-windows-x64, and it happens with both LibreOffice_6.2.8_Win_x64, and LibreOffice_6.3.3_Win_x64

My recommendation would be to reset the user profile.

Save the existing user profile under a different name beforehand.

When I turned off hardware acceleration, the problem disappeared.
