Problem with Libre Office 25.2.5.2 [I can't open pdf files exported from odt]

I recently downloaded Libre Office 25.2.5.2. I now cannot open pdf files I exported from odt. I want to reset my computer to two weeks ago when I didn’t have 25.2.5.2 and use an older version of Libre office; How can I do this or is there another answer to open pdf files with new 25.2.5.2…? Thank you. I am a contributor to Libre Office.

How did you try? What happens? Error message?

PDF can be opened from Draw.
Opening by double-click is something registered in your OS. So you could check settings there. But as you didn’t tell your OS I recommend you use google for instructions.

also depends on your OS, and if you have created a snapshot…

What happens when you try to open the pdf files? It might be anti ransomware that blocks LibreOffice. As you were on Windows 10 on a previous question then this link might be helpful, Defender Controlled folder access exception for LibreOffice - The Document Foundation Wiki

Now we come to the important question, why do you want to edit pdfs that you created? Just make the changes in the original Writer document and export a new pdf.

If you do want to maintain an editable copy of the Writer document within the pdf, then export it as a hybrid pdf.
