Description J.R 2018-09-15 12:03:46 UTC
Description:
I have been working on Word documents for my job, but with unexplained frequency the system crashes. 
I have lost a good part of the document as the system does not save frequently as well. 
Although there is a recuperation, it should be programmed with shorter intervals.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open one or more documents from Word or Excel, or combined.
2. Working on them, system crashes and pop up window appears stating it will close due to unexpected error.
3. Work done for the previous minutes will be lost even though the recuperation feature is performed.

Actual Results:
1. System crashing with certain frequency! (Very frustrating!)
2. Do not know how to fix issue.

Expected Results:
Smooth running like with previous versions of LibreO.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
With the latest crash, I received this message:

Eventhough I received a crash report with a message confirming the system crash, I haven't received this same report for all the previous crashes so I assume this is not the only bug causing this horrible problem.
