Bug ID: 94183
Summary: LibreOffice recovery wizard initiated when trying to
run as administrator and as normal user at the same
time
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 4.4.1.2 release
Hardware: Other
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: framework
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Environment:
- Windows 8.1 x86-64 English
- Administrator user
- UAC set to "Ask when an application tries to make changes..." (default value)
- LibreOffice 4.4.x or 5.0.1 (many other versions affected as well) installed
- Total Commander (or other file manager) run as administrator
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a document using the Total Commander.
2. Try to open another document using Windows Explorer.
3. Wait a few seconds (nothing happens, LibO document remains open and
unchanged).
4. Close LibreOffice window.
Result: LibreOffice recovery wizard starts.
Explanation:
During step 1, LibreOffice starts as admin and opens the document.
During step 2, Windows shell tries to start LibO as normal user. However it is
already running as admin.
LibreOffice (or Windows?) is unable to handle this (nothing happens in step 3),
but it doesn't crash this time.
When closing LibO (step 4), it realizes, that it didn't started or stopped
properly. Wizard starts.
Expected behavior: LibO should either pass the new document to the already
running process, or it should show a dialog that LibO is already running in
another user space and it should not try to open the document.
Fact: Issue can be reproduced using any LibreOffice component
(Calc/Write/Impress/Draw...)
Please note this has not been tested in terminal server environment (where
users with different security levels may work in parallel).
