This week, I delivered a ThinkPad T540p laptop to a customer that I had upgraded to Windows 11 for them (not officially supported by Microsoft). Was giving them a tour of the basic features, navigation and programs... but LibreOffice wouldn't open.
It wouldn't until I changed the "compatibility mode" setting for LibreOffice to "Windows 8".
Here's a guide: https://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch001894.htm
