Windows 10 update libre office fails to launch

#1

After update to Windows 10, version 1703, on 13 MAY Libre Office will not launch.
OS WIN 10 64 bit
LO version: 5.2.7 and 5.3.3 shows same behaviour.
Trying to run in safe mode does not work.
Have tried uninstall and re-install, reboot etc.

Executing directly from exefile or from short cuts makes no difference.
In the joblist two process are running soffice.exe and soffice.bin.
Soffice bin is consistently using roughly 30% of the processor capacity, soffice exe 0%
If I try to execute by double clkicking e.g, a libreOffice calc file two new soffice.exe and soffice.bin processes are launched and a scalc.exe on top. The two soffice.bin processes are showing identical usage of processor capacity.
So the good news: The behaviour is repeatable…
Now what to do: Roll back WIN 10 update??
Cheers

Patience appeared to be the answer. Left the PC to hibernate for about 24 hours.
Tried to launch LO 5.27 - and it did!
Inspected running processes. soffice.exe and scalc.exe running with 0% processor usage. soffice.bin not present in the process list. Hmmm, I think i’ll wait a bit with upgrading to LO 5.3.3

Did LO open normally after a re-boot or does the hibernate method only work without re-booting?

#4

I experienced the exact same problem with both LO 5.2x and 5.3.3. I had to revert back to a previous version of win10.

#5

try and reinstall it

#6

does not help. did repair. nothing changed. it will not open. never installed quickstarter either, do can’t exactly disable it because it doesn’t exist.

#7

Verify if it is enable Menu/Tools/Options/LibreOffice/Memory - LibreOffice quickstarter, disable and reboot.
