Issue ID: 127157
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: Styles and Formatting window does not open - apparent
cause is corrupted registrymodifications.xcu file
Product: Writer
Version: 4.1.2
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 (lowest)

Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org

Styles and Formatting pop-up (press F11) does not open when this file is used
in the profile
1 Press F11. Styles and Formatting pop-up window does not open.
2 Delete user profile and allow AOO to create a new user profile
3 Press F11. Styles and Formatting pop-up window now opens
4 Replace new registrymodifications.xcu file with original
registrymodifications.xcu file. Styles and Formatting pop-up window does not
open.
It therefore appears that the original registrymodifications.xcu file (uploaded
here) is somehow corrupted. See [Solved] Styles and Formatting will not open
(Mac) at https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=85461
This bug report has been raised following Issue 126846 - Analysis Task: Major
Recurring Data/Operation Loss/Corruption Situations where it was reported that
many problems with AOO can be fixed by "rebuilding the user profile" - spell
checker not working is regularly reported on the forum and is invariably fixed
by rebuilding the profile.
In fact, I believe that the profile itself is undamaged and the only damaged
item is the registrymodifications.xcu file. Note that this file appears to be
written AFTER the document is saved so is particularly vulnerable to any "slam
the laptop lid shut ..." actions.
It may be linked to Issue 126762 - Analysis+solution: Damaged
"registrymodifications.xcu" causing problems with backups and spell checker
