Description thomas@redtile.com 2025-08-21 00:04:11 UTC 
All files from previous versions of LibreOffice Writer will fail to open in 25.8.4

I try to recover at the prompt, but system cannot. I've tried files from older versions and same results. Impossible to open any writer file OTT and ODT. Regressed to 25.2.5 and all is OK. Seems to be 25.8.4 specific.
