Re: [libreoffice-users] Can't open new version of LO

Otherwise, at the end of the Download page, you can still choose a previous
version (like the one that was working for you, or one in the middle
between that one and the latest), download it and install it.

https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download-libreoffice/

If the version you'd like is not listed, there's also an "in the archive"
link, pointing at this page:
https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

There you can find ALL LO versions, from the very beginning of the project.

BUT before doing that, I'd suggest to check if currently installed version
is compatible with Windows 7 and in that case try running it in safe mode:

I hope it has been useful, good luck.
