To easily continue testing while still keeping your working 7.6.7, you can install a daily build:
Win-x86_64@tb77-TDF from https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/current.html

It will install separately.

First of all, it would be nice to hear, if the daily build runs fine.

Thanks, I downloaded and installed the development package. It installed well and works, although I didn't use it on any of my personal documents. I also selected "Start with Windoze", but nothing happens. I still need to open each application separately.

Ok, good to hear. One option is to stick with 7.6 until 24.8 is released in August and then give it a shot: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/24.8

I haven't tried again, as I'm afraid to get the same results. For that reason this bug can be closed.

But you got good results with the development version a year ago, so I think at least 24.8.7 will work for you.
