    Hello.
    As explained here, Open Office is no longer developed, try reinstalling it; if that doesn't improve things, switch to LibreOffice.

      As a moderator, refrain from making such outlandish statements. OpenOffice is still being developed.

        This is not an exaggeration but a truth.
        I only read the page indicated in my previous message, which I recall https://www.commentcamarche.net/telecharger/bureautique/16611-openoffice/
        It is clearly stated that updates are very limited and only consist of bug fixes and minor improvements; the development of software goes beyond just managing bugs and incompatibilities.
        LibreOffice is definitely more relevant, and the updates bring real changes or new features, which is not the case with OpenOffice.
        Now, tastes and colors.

        This page is a CCM production and does not reflect in any way the official site: https://www.openoffice.org/fr/
        As for your impressions on what should be relevant for software, that is solely your opinion.
