Please identify the previous version of LibreOffice youd been using.

Please identify the Windows version and system hardware you've got.
(run msinfo32.exe from a cmd prompt, we'd like detains from the System summary, and the Components -> Display panel).

Thanks.

In the meanwhile, you may also upgrade to 25.2.3 + https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/FirstSteps#Corrupted_user_profile
