I was not able to get a crash with AOO 4.0 RC on Windows 7 64-bit or Windows 8 32-bit. I tested Writer in a document with a mix of objects and formats, doing a lot of editing, formatting, copy/paste and delete operations, including formatting via the Sidepanel. This was the en-US version. So this doesn't look like a "shallow" crash that everyone will see. But it would be good to narrow it down. For example, has anyone seen it on a non-German version? Is that a clue? Is a particular object involved? I tried also with images, drawings, lists, tables, etc. Was anything more exotic involved? Mine was a clean new install, not an update. But it is hard to imagine a scenario where copy or delete operations behave differently depending on whether the install was an update or not. -Rob > -Rob > > > >> Kind regards >> Regina >> >> >>> >>> Kind regards >>> Regina >>> >>>> >>>> - Dennis >>>> >>>> -----Original Message----- >>>> From: Max Merbald [mailto:max.merb...@gmx.de] >>>> Sent: Sunday, July 14, 2013 11:01 AM >>>> To: dev@openoffice.apache.org >>>> Cc: Regina Henschel >>>> Subject: Re: Installation on Windows 8, 64bit >>>> >>>> Hi Regina, >>>> >>>> I reported the same thing on June 22, but I couldn't reproduce it the >>>> next day.
