Description: I found several bug reports already on this but none did solve my problem. Now I assume I found the solution by myself and maybe it helps other with the same behavior. After the installation of LibreOffice 25.2.1 none of the applications started correctly. I did not get any error message, just nothing popping up. I assume the root case was the ransomware blocker in Windows 10. I found a message that the soffice.bin was blocked. After whitelistening application it worked. Actual Results: I found a message that the soffice.bin was blocked. After whitelistening application it worked. Expected Results: Solved Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: It should inform the user to whitelist that application in the ransomeware blocker in Windows.
Please report this false positive to your antivirus/ransomware software producer. What do you mean that we should inform users? You've been informed by your antivirus software "I found a message that the soffice.bin was blocked.".
Shall I inform Microsoft? :-( It was the integrated ransomeware from Windows 10. I did not get the error message immediately during installation and startup. I found it by accident in the Security Information of Microsoft. Anyway. I just wanted to inform you and others about that finding because it might be others will have the same problem. Otherwise just ignore the bug description.

I'm afraid LO cannot do anything in this area. > > I did not get the error message immediately during installation and startup. > I found it by accident in the Security Information of Microsoft. > > Anyway.
