Hi glacken4,

No, it is a bug in LibreOffice itself (and a non-deterministic one, just happen
to exist in 7.1.6, but not in 7.1.5), so no changes in Windows security
settings would help.

In case you have trouble reading the technical analysis in the duplicate bug
144598, there are basically two remedies:

1. Downgrade to 7.1.5 and wait for 7.1.7 which hopefully will get the bug
fixed.

2. If you need some bugfix in 7.1.6, or don't mind tweaking things, you need to
disable Skia (which is enabled by default) for your installation.  The easiest
way, if you currently have 7.1.5 installed, is to go to Tools > Options dialog,
disable the LibreOffice > View > Graphics Output > Use Skia for all rendering
checkbox, click OK button and exit.  Then you can upgrade to 7.1.6 and it
should start fine.  Just remember to never enable that Skia option as long as
you are using 7.1.6.  You can also manually change this setting by editing user
profile, as described in bug 144598 comment #2.

Hope this helps.
