Description david.cortes.rivera 2019-12-18 20:52:59 UTC
Steps to reproduce:
- Launch Writer.
- Create some document and save it, so that it would show up in the list of recent documents.
- Close Writer and any other LO application.
- Launch Impress.
- Create a new presentation with it and save it.
- Open Writer with a (default) new blank document, without closing Impress.
- Try to open the file that was saved earlier through the drop-down button "Recent documents".

Expected behavior: should open the earlier file in Writer.

Actual behavior: as long as Impress remains open, will not open the file in Writer, but rather will launch a new window with a blank document and close the one from which the document was tried to be loaded.

Issue got solved after a computer restart.
