Description: It used to be possible to open an existing file at the opening screen with the shortcut, Ctrl-O. This can still be done anywhere in the program, including the screen which appears after closing all of the currently open LO files). When first opening the program, however, the only way to open a file is with the mouse. I'm not sure at what version this began to happen. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Libreoffice 2. Press Ctrl-O to open a file 3. Actual Results: Nothing happens Expected Results: A dialog box should open allowing one to browse to the desired file Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Version: 5.4.5.1 (x64) Build ID: 79c9829dd5d8054ec39a82dc51cd9eff340dbee8 CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 6.19; UI render: default; Locale: en-US (en_US); Calc: group User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/64.0.3282.186 Safari/537.36 OPR/51.0.2830.55
Hi Jon, I don't reproduce with LO 5.4.5.1 Build ID: 79c9829dd5d8054ec39a82dc51cd9eff340dbee8 CPU threads: 2; OS: Windows 6.1; UI render: default; Locale: en-GB (fr_FR); Calc: CL Perhaps a Windows 10 only issue? Did you try to run Libreoffice in Safe Mode? (Help > Restart in Safe Mode...)
You're correct. It does work correctly in safe mode. It's strange, though, because I have the same behavior on two separate computers, one an ASUS, the other a Toshiba, both running Windows 10. The only additions I made to the default configuration was a Portuguese spell dictionary and Portuguese interface (though I use English most of the time), plus I removed the French and Spanish dictionaries/interfaces and turned off auto update and fast start.
I can't reproduce it in Version: 6.1.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: 234d0368c823eb1a74e973e051ac522e6b86e833 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.13; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: ca-ES (ca_ES.UTF-8); Calc: group What happens if you click on the window before using Ctrl + O ?
Clicking on the window first does in fact make it possible to use Ctrl-O to open a file. But of course I might just as well click on "Open File" if I have to use the mouse and click on the Window first.
Ok, it seems to be WIN only Reproduced in - Versión: 6.0.1.1 Id. de compilación: 60bfb1526849283ce2491346ed2aa51c465abfe6 Subprocs. CPU: 1; SO: Windows 6.1; Repres.

No problem for me, I don't have to click to focus. Maybe worth trying with 6.0.4. Version: 6.0.4.2 (x64) Build ID: 9b0d9b32d5dcda91d2f1a96dc04c645c450872bf CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; Locale: fi-FI (fi_FI); Calc: group
Right. I'm using 6.4 now and the problem does not persist in this version.
Oops. Make that 6.04, not 6.4
Great! Let's close.
