Hello,
#VALUE appear if I use only one $ character to fix cell. For example =SUM(C$2:C63) doesn't work on 5.1.0.3 release. I tried and checked help from forums, solutions and setting options as much as I can but nothing helped. I try to report this because its a new release and I have never seen this before. I must have to install the previously 5.0.5 version and that works perfectly.
Only a similar problem was when #VALUE appeared for an empty cell and I mean it  that was empty. When I pressed delete on this empty cell then #VALUE disappeared.
It's weird and really frustrating situations when I need my "values" urgently.
Thanks!

I can't reproduce.
Win10x64
Version: 5.1.1.1 (x64)
Build ID: c43cb650e9c145b181321ea547d38296db70f36e
CPU Threads: 4; OS Version: Windows 6.19; UI Render: default/GL;

Please try resetting the user profile, sometimes solves strange issues.

Usually it's enough renaming/deleting the file "user/registrymodifications.xcu",  it affects all the options in Menu/Tools/Options, and the files "user/basic/dialog.xlc" and "scrip.xlc" are overwritten, additionally custom colors in "user/config/standard.soc" are lost.

Thank you for the prompt response. Actually I forgot that I use given files on a Linux computer too. In addition, I created this files on Debian 8.3 and currently the version of LibreOffice is 4.3.3.2 on it. I did a reinstall on Windows and I erased registrymodifications.xcu on both computers as you advised but it didn't work.
There is a different between the two LibreOffice what I can't change. That's the "Detailed calculation settings" in Options/LibreOffice Calc/Formula. That's Custom in the new Windows version and Default in Linux version. When I change it and close than reopen LibreOffice that's returned to its original position.
