   If you have trouble with an open-source package on Windows, always try   
   it on Linux for comparison. Such freezes are so common on Windows   
   anyway, you cannot automatically blame the issue on the app without   
   this elementary check.   
      
   Oh, and LibreOffice isn’t part of the GNU project.
