Created attachment 174062 [details] example file Writer hangs while trying to open some ODT documents that have been edited previously with Word. Maybe Word corrupted the contents of the file? Anyway, in that case Writer should show an error message, not hang. (See attachment.)
No issue with Version: 7.3.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 36efb384a66b6dd645e0ae80fd7df68370a9dc8b CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 6.3 Build 9600; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: nl-NL (nl_NL); UI: nl-NL Calc: CL
Sorry. After starting in safe-mode, it was OK.
