Description: When shutting down a Windows system, an error message will appear stating soffice.bin encountered an application error. The error codes will vary. Here is the text from two sample error messages: The exception unknown software exception (0x40000015) occurred in the application at location OxEC79990f The exception unknown software exception (0x40000015) occurred in the application at location Oxfaf4994f In both cases, LibreOffice was configured to load when Windows starts. I've seen the above behavior on Windows 7 and Windows 10 systems. LibreOffice, itself, appears to run ok but the above message will appear during normal shutdown of *Windows*, itself. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install LibreOffice on Windows 2. Configure LibreOffice to start when Windows starts 3. Open LibreOffice and make sure the quick starter appears in the system tray 4. Close LibreOffice 5. Perform a normal Windows shutdown Actual Results: The "soffice.bin - Application error" message window appears with the following message: The exception unknown software exception (0x40000015) occurred in the application at location Oxfaf4994f The "location" address can vary. Expected Results: soffice.bin should not encounter an exception when Windows shuts down. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: I've seen this on a 32-bit Windows 7 system and on a 64-bit Windows 10 system.
