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.
