Created attachment 98821 [details] sample of document which crashes Version: 4.2.4.2 Build ID: 63150712c6d317d27ce2db16eb94c2f3d7b699f8 same bug with prior verion(s) This bug is 100% repeatable on my system. I am editing an HTML document, select all (CTL-A) then pick 'Format Page' from the menu. Writer immediately crashes, closing the document and Writer. This happens all the time with no exception. I believe it happens regardless of the document as well. Document is attached.
It makes me think about fdo#65852 put in See Also. Do you reproduce this with a brand new odt file + just format page (so without Select All)? Also, could you rename your LO directory profile (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile#Windows) and give it a new try?
When I CTRL-N from the ‘problem HTML file’ to create a new HTML document I get the same result (immediate crash and shut down). When I start Writer and open a new ODF file Format Page appears to work. If I then save that document as an HTML file, Format Page appears to work. I am sorry, I do not understand “Also, could you rename your LO directory profile” as I do not understand what the LO directory profile is. I read through the ‘see also’ bug #65852 report and it looks identical. I notice the person was asked to reset the User profile by renaming the /appdata/roaming/libreoffice/4/user directory. I did this and now the system no longer crashes with the aforementioned file. I retained the old user profile for experimentation should you want me to do so. Thank you.

Update Everything worked fine the first run of Writer after resetting the profile. I closed Writer and reopened the ‘bad’ HTML file and the problem reappeared. I created a new HTML file and the problem reappeared (i.e. the empty file causes the crash). I can now recreate the problem, I think, always. I rename my profile. Start Writer. When I start it anew, I can Format Page on the new, default ODF document. If I then File New HTML document, I notice the rule ‘looks weird’ – it is 14” wide. Format Page does nothing. No crash, but no other effect. If I enter any text (i.e. two spaces) and Format Page, Writer crashes, etc..
