Description Bill Holmes 2020-09-16 10:44:46 UTC
Description:
See summary.  My version is 7.0.1.2 (x64).  Its build is 7cbcfc562f6eb6708b5ff7d7397325de9e764452

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a Word doc (or docx) in LibreOffice Writer
2. I see the error every time


Actual Results:
I tried "reset to factory" in Safe Mode, but now it just warns of missing hyphenation module in "de" (German) instead of US English.

Expected Results:
should not get hyphenation errors


Reproducible: Always

is it possible that the docx is from Google docs download/export, which uses language code showing as {de} or {en} in the status bar?

Maybe not a duplicate of bug 137742 that is about GDocs documents having a language tag of only 'en'.

If the original bug submitter could answer the above question whether it's about opening Google Docs documents?

It might be a moot point now.  I have since done a Reset in Windows 10 (complete reinstallation), and reinstalled the latest Libre Office, 7.2.5.2 (x64), and there have been no problems.

So this needs to be closed, we don't know the cause.
