(I am aware of bug 50421, and it says it's resolved in 7.2.3, but I updated LibreOffice today to 7.2.5 and the issue is still there.)

Immediately after updating LibreOffice on Windows 10 and macOS Monterey (Intel), when 'Check for updates' is clicked in the menu, the update checker panel displays what appears to be inactive controls and is non-functional.  

"Checking..." is displayed with a caret in front of it, the progress wheel displays but isn't animated, an empty progress bar is displayed along with "0%" with a field that overlaps the 'Resume' button. (See screenshot attached to this bug)

It should be noted that after the non-functioning update panel is displayed, closing, then reopening LibreOffice will display a working update panel until the program is updated again.

I'm very surprised that this is still marked 'Unconfirmed' as there are others who have reported this.

It's still happening as of 7.3.4.2.  Here's a video of what it does:

2. on first launch, open Help > Check for Updates…
3. update dialog shows (identical to what is seen in bug demo video by Will (thanks for that). Added screenshot for macOS (the issue is identical and seems trivial to confirm).
