This is the LibreOffice 4.2.6 and 4.3.0 Save as... window, no options under field "Name", cant save anything.

Sorry for my English is not my native language. I just upgraded LibreOffice version 4.1.6 to 4.2.6 on Win XP and there is problems with the Save As... window. I cant save any document in any application (Writer, Calc, Draw...). Under the "Name" field does not appear anything. All window behaviour is erratic. This problem also appears in version 4.3.0. Default profile used after installation. Previous version uninstalled and registry cleaned. No problems on LibreOffice 4.1.6.

Attachment images with the problem.

On Win7 with LO 4.2.6, I don't reproduce this.

When saying "Default profile used", you mean you use a brand new LO profile? (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile#Windows)

I can NOT confirm this bug. For me it works fine with Hungarian locals.

Windows XP SP2

To explain better I will discuss the steps that I followed. To use LibreOffice 4.2.6 I did a full uninstall of previous LibreOffice 4.1.6 with Revo Uninstaller and I cleaned the registry of bad entries with CCleaner. Then I deleted the entire LibreOffice folder of Program Files (if exist) and the folder Libreoffice on \Documents and Setting\<user name>\Application Data\libreoffice.

I do a custom install of LibreOffice 4.2.6 only with Spanish user interface and spanish dictionary the rest of the elements are disabled. When the installation finish I run Writer, it start windowed, and LibreOffice creates its own LibreOffice folder (this is the default profile that I referred) on \Documents and Setting\<user name>\Application Data\ with default options after installation.

Every works properly but when I'm going to save my document the Save as... window appears as in the image attached. No options under Name, the save and cancel button does not respond, I can only close that window by clicking the x in the upper right corner.

If I uninstall version 4.2.6 and install the 4.1.6 whit same custom install options everything works correctly.

Same problems opening something

I tried doing a fresh FULL install of LibreOffice 4.2.6, not only I can not save a document but I can not open or export, I have the same problem. I did not realize before because I just tried to write something and save it.

Again if I go back to version 4.1.6 I have no problem. I will try to install it on another PC and if the problem disappears I have to stay with version 4.1.6. I've been using LibreOffice since it was born and so far I have not had any problem with it. It's weird.

LibreOffice 4.2.6.2
