Description: Since I upgraded to LibreOffice v6.0.5.2 (x64) on Win10, Writer crashes all the time when I'm editing a document. Sometimes it takes as less as 10 seconds after opening a document, other times I can work a fully 60 seconds before a crash, but never longer than that. Writer freezes for a second, then it exits without any error message. Often I can tell it's going to crash because I put the cursor in a table and the Table toolbar doesn't appear, as it should. Some of the actions that triggered a crash: - Deleting rapidly several rows from a table - Selecting some cells of a table - Adding rows on a table - Right-clicking on the Table Of Contents - Double-clicking to select a part of text with Heading 1 style I'm currently working on a ~170 pages document which has a large number of tables in it, so perhaps it's related to tables. I noticed that when editing a very simple and short document with no tables Writer didn't crash, but I worked on it for too short a time to be able to draw any conclusion. Workarounds I tried and which didn't have any effect: - Reset my user profile - Disable hardware acceleration - Disable antialiasing - Disable OpenGL Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the document 2. Fiddle a bit here and there Actual Results: Writer crashes silently. Expected Results: Writer should not crash. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Version: 6.0.5.2 (x64) Build ID: 54c8cbb85f300ac59db32fe8a675ff7683cd5a16 CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; Locale: en-US (en_US); Calc:
Other actions that triggered a crash: - Selecting a drawing object (a small rectangle) As a fix, following advice I've read around, I have also disabled automatic updates, but with no change.

I am now using v6.1 RC2; it seems more stable than the release version. I will do some more testing to see if the problem persists and post here the results. Thank you for now.

I'm happy to report that Writer v6.1 RC2 hasn't crashed once. Closing the bug as RESOLVED/FIXED.
Thanks for retesting with the latest version. Setting to RESOLVED WORKSFORME as the commit fixing this issue hasn't been identified.
