Dear Rajat, I've never heard of this problem, and have never experienced it myself. Can you show a screencast so that we understand the problem better? I have seen an issue where double-clicking on a file in the open dialog can cause LyX to crash. That was solved by removing the package qt-at-spi. You could try removing that package (if you have it installed), but it's really just a shot in the dark. Scott
