Yes I get exactly the same result with this r1484083 based ia2 branch build. Except for the swriter.exe launcher, all the other components launch without issue as does the Start Center. And like you, when Writer is launched from the start center, it comes up cleanly. On an initial launch from the Writer shortcut, or if running the writer.exe directly--the swriter.exe, soffice.exe, and soffice.bin will all run--but the writer session hangs. Have to manually end the writer process from task manager. A relaunch of any OpenOffice launcher or the start center panel results in a recovery panel that will not complete. A reset of user profile (i.e. delete %AppData%\Openffice ) is the clean way to return function, as edit of the XML recovery stanzas in the OpenOffice registrymodifications.xcu configuration file is not worth the hassle. The user profile will rebuild to default, and just reactivate the Tools --> Options --> Accessibility --> Support assistive technology tools. This issue with the writer.exe launcher is not a problem on the AOO 4.0.0 release, so should resolve when Steve Y. rebases the ia2 branch. Meanwhile, best to simply not use the writer.exe launcher in working with the ia2 branch.
