Example file to crash Writer

When JAWS is running, and I open the attached template from the Explorer, LO crashes.

1. Save attached document
2. Install JAWS demo from https://support.freedomscientific.com/Downloads/JAWS 
3. Double click on the attached document when in Explorer
-> Opens, all is fine
4. Start JAWS
5. Double click on the attached document when in Explorer
-> LO crashes

Happens in 24.2 and 

Version: 25.8.0.4 (X86_64)
Build ID: 48f00303701489684e67c38c28aff00cd5929e67
CPU threads: 14; OS: Windows 10 X86_64 (build 19045); UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: de-AT (hu_HU); UI: de-DE
Calc: threaded

Supposedly in master too, I'm just unable to tell Windows to use the nightly as default association, somehow.

It seems like this does not happen, if I open the file from a running LO instance, and the document starting with a table also seems to be important.
