I had considerable stability problems with the Getting Started Guide's files. My problem may be different than Keith's but it was fixed by running my Windows 10 system in Safe Mode. The instability was most commonly associated with manipulating (copying/pasting) images in frames. A related symptom is that I cannot view macros stored in OpenOffice documents unless I use Safe Mode because the program crashes. This has been a problem with my current Windows system for a few years. I have tried to determine what driver or program causes the crash but I have failed. Keith - do you ever edit or view marcos? I have a Linux Mint system on which I can test the Stability of the Getting Started documents. I will try that and report the result. Francis
