Created attachment 174590 [details] Composite screen dump of two error panels This bug was filed from the crash reporting server and is br-3551c918-46bf-4498-b1b0-0dba22f5c015. ========================================= I had been working on a protected sheet and copied some auto filtered rows from sheet 2 to sheet 1. These rows were not contiguous in the source but it was intended to simply append them to the end of the target array. The date formats were not identical so I changed the 8 copied rows. I then noticed the previous rows had the incorrect location format and upon trying to change these the application crashed. I did catch a glimpse of a progress bar before it was gone. I have no idea if this was related to the crash reporting or simply the periodic autosave. Restart resulted in the constant flashing of the welcome banner with its message which followed my mouse from monitor to monitor - upper half of the screen image attached. I restarted twice to ensure it was "cleared" Next activation of LO recommended recovery of the two open documents which I accepted. Screen display was odd with a conflict over the positioning of two extensions on the toolbar. I resolved that by simply closing them. Attempting to reload Power detective - an extension I have been using for years - resulted in the "discovery" error noted in the lower half of the screen image attached. The warning is confirmed - nothing exists beyond the cache directory. The second extension was Style reporter which had only been on my system since Aug 21st - 7 days and only used a couple of times. I haven't tried to reinstall that.
If you'll can repeat it with clear steps for reproduction of the problem it would be cool Can you do some expirements?
An upgrading 7.1 or even 7.2 might help too..
You have more chance of being struck by lightning TWICE. It completely screwed my installation. An update to a later version also failed to remediate. Completely uninstalling and reinstalling everything exposed another bug - Even a fresh install of the latest stable release found all the old APPDATA files AFTER uninstallation and Registry flushing with CCleaner. Now I have to uninstall, find and remove all files on the disk even vaguely resembling LO in program, program data, Appdata and probably even the windows temp folder. Perhaps you could tell me where else to look in case I've missed something. And there I was thinking uninstall meant uninstall. If these endeavours fail then I can't even use Libre Office - let alone experiment

Restore factory settings > -> Whole profile Yay now all I have to do is remember all my old settings and make this version 7.2.0.4 mine. Thanks. Hopefully, you won't be offended if I don't try to recreate the bug. I have a nasty suspicion it was associated with the recent installation of Style Reporter which I'm not going to reinstall - even to help you out. Thanks again - feel free to mark it not a bug - flaky extension or something that will get it off your books.
Created attachment 177369 [details] Screen Dump Just discovered something sinister. After the latest crashing, recovering and reporting I perceived a noisier cooling fan so I investigated. Attached is the Task Manager Screen. Libre Office is not running anything. All files closed, I even opened and closed one to try to "flush it out" - Twice. All it does is push the CPU% higher. Yes, killing the task does kill it
According to the crashreport, it's related to SKIA.
If Skia related (at least for the last crash), this may help: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/FirstSteps#Graphics-related_issues_.28_Skia_.29
According to https://crashreport.libreoffice.org/stats/signature/SkiaSalGraphicsImpl::applyXor(), this issue is no longer reproducible in LibreOffice 7.4.0.3 Please update to the latest version Closing as RESOLVED WORKSFORME
