--- Comment #4 from [email protected] --- I didn't go the long way. I had to put version 24.2 back on the system since i had already installed 5.2.9 to get him working. Remember, it worked fine with 5.2.9, thus going into safe mode on that version was was unnecessary. But, when I installed 24.2 AGAIN, but in CUSTOME mode and forced RESTART, I first had to bring it up before going into safe mode. I did bring it up and rechecked for the error before going into safe mode and it now worked rendering the need to go into safe mode unnecessary still! If I had to speculate, based on my 40+ years of troubleshooting and operating system design/development/support and consulting experience, I would want to look at the code that processes popping the context menu up and see if the long delay of 1.5 minutes was due to the hack I made to get Windows 10 context menu back instead of the Windows 11 one. It seems to me that since the normal install method (other option being Custom), did NOT state a Restart was necessary and did NOT force Restart as did Custom install on top of older version at the initial time. Quite possibility LibreOffice Writer was expecting the normal Windows 11 context menu to be offered and instead it was changed by the hack. The Writer did eventually popup the Windows 10 context menu. LibreOffice 24.2 was first installed as part of the system rebuild on 2/29. It was used for several weeks without a hitch . The error was just recently recognized and may I add after the Windows 10 context menu hack was done. NO restart had been done during the hack time and the occurrence of the error. I am sure you can test this yourself by applying the Windows 10 hack (https://helpdeskgeek.com/windows-11/how-to-customize-the-right-click-context-menu-in-windows-11/) onto an older LibreOffice, install 24.2 normally with all features, do NOT restart, test for error. If error is present, do a Restart and test again. If error disappears, than the normal installation method should REQUIRE a RESTART like the Custom does to avoid this error. My knowledge of today's coding is nonexistent, but my troubleshooting and external design specs are exceptional. I cannot relate to internal design since I have not studied any LibreOffice internal design documents if they even exist. As mentioned, the error disappears after 1.5 minutes and for those 1.5 minutes it is unlikely that someone writing something will even go to the tool bar to do anything, except maybe print, to notice the error. However, if they do, you may see another report from someone of the delay. I wouldn't devote much time on this and would probably just post this bug report as notification of how to resolve it. That should suffice. Glad I could offer the resolution and support LibreOffice. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
