Description cet.pc 2018-09-28 21:33:19 UTC 
This bug was filed from the crash reporting server and is br-e4e0cdb2-71f9-4ade-87b9-17907b9c704b.
=========================================
I had closed a Writer file earlier today and when I attempted to reopen the file, the bug message appeared asking me to report the bug.  I am attempting to do so. There was a Microsoft update between the last closing and the opening of the document that failed.  The file is a normal 2 page Writer file, as far as I am concerned, with a list of items, some empty lines, some italicized lines, and some tables created solely by tabs.  I just attempted to reopen the file and it has opened normally.  I do not know what the bug represents and am just perplexed at this point.

So you can't remember a crash and you're not able to reproduce this crash?
Comment 2 cet.pc 2018-09-29 20:52:27 UTC 
So, as a mere user and not a technology wizard, I guess that the program crashed when trying to open the Writer file.  I do not know if failure to open a file and then produce a request for the bug report meets Libre Office's definition of a crash.  As a mere user it appears to be a crash,though there was not a splash screen that said CRASH.  As the my bug report says, I was able to reopen that Writer file while I was preparing the bug report and have been able to reopen the file without the bug report several additional times in the past 24 hours. The only out of the ordinary event between the normal opening of the Writer document yesterday and the subsequent failed opening of the Writer file were two Windows 7 updates for Microsoft Security Essentials and a restart.

Thank you for reporting the bug.
it seems you're using an old version of LibreOffice.
Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice
from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ?
I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to
'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.

I have updated my Libre Office program.  The crash has not repeated.  I used the file several times a day over the last week and it did not repeat after the first crash and has not repeated since I updated the program to version 6.0.6.2.  I can not recreate the bug at this time.
