Please test in safe mode, Menu/Help/Restart in Safe Mode
Comment 2 bj.ronneberg 2024-03-17 07:15:48 UTC
Safe mode has no effect - LO freezes after a few seconds.
Comment 3 m_a_riosv 2024-03-17 23:56:46 UTC

Thanks for providing the information from Help->About - not everybody take a moment to do that important step. The Norwegian locale is the problem; this bug is resolved in upcoming versions 7.6.6 and 24.2.2.
