Description: I've updated LibreOffice last night on both my Windows 10 and Window 7 machines (both 64bit). While the former launches w/o issues the latter crashes immediately while launching any of its GUI components without showing any of its UI. What it does successfully is "soffice.exe --convert-to pdf some.htm", but it also crashes on "soffice.exe --convert-to rtf some.htm". The post mortem crash dump provided by WinDbg reports exception code 0xC000001D (Illegal instruction) with the following call stack (created when launching soffice.exe as you can certainly tell from it): skialo!SkRect::round mergedlo!SkiaSalGraphicsImpl::addUpdateRegion+0x74 mergedlo!SkiaSalGraphicsImpl::privateDrawAlphaRect+0xc2 mergedlo!SkiaSalGraphicsImpl::drawRect+0x2a mergedlo!OutputDevice::DrawRect+0x1a0 mergedlo!OutputDevice::DrawColorWallpaper+0xb0 mergedlo!OutputDevice::DrawWallpaper+0x95 mergedlo!OutputDevice::Erase+0x82 mergedlo!VirtualDevice::InnerImplSetOutputSizePixel+0xdd mergedlo!VirtualDevice::ImplSetOutputSizePixel+0x30 mergedlo!lingucomponent_SpellChecker_get_implementation+0x217b cppuhelper3MSC!cppu::OPropertySetHelper::setPropertyValues+0x164ff cppuhelper3MSC!cppu::OPropertySetHelper::setPropertyValues+0x1560d cppuhelper3MSC!cppu::OPropertySetHelper::setPropertyValues+0x15836 mergedlo!SfxTabPage::set_visible+0x7444 mergedlo!SfxTabPage::set_visible+0x49ae mergedlo!ImplSVMain+0x67 mergedlo!soffice_main+0x133 soffice!main+0x1b soffice!main+0x2c4 The final assembly line reads: vmovups ymm0,xmmword ptr [rcx] ds:00000000`00b6f300 Steps to Reproduce: No steps required, just launch the application "as is". Actual Results: Can't use LibreOffice. Expected Results: You get the picture ... Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info: I even did a reboot after installation just to be sure there wouldn't be any leftovers from uninstalling the previous version or any other application interfering. Setup ran w/o issues. German helpfiles installed after completion w/o issues either. Previous version didn't crash. Can't copy anything from the "Help - About" screen for obvious reasons ... Disabling the user profile doesn't change anything libreoffice --safe-mode crashes
Created attachment 175898 [details] Post Mortem Minidump extracted with WinDbg's .dump command No matter which LO module is launched, the dump always looks exactly the same.
There is a known bug in 7.1.6 that prevents it from starting on older CPU (with no AVX instruction set). This has been fixed, please test the newly released 7.1.7 RC1: https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download/?version=7.1.7 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 144598 ***
Updated to 7.1.7, fix confirmed, thank you. Michael
