[SOLVED] While starting LibreOffice, the computer froze

I wanted to check if I can turn on opencl in libreoffice.
After turing the option in settings I can't run linreoffice anymore.
The only solution was to turn it off using the power button.
After another try laptop froze again.
I didn't know what to do so I removed everything libreoffice connected from .config directory. Didn't help so I did libreoffice reinstallation.
This didn't help either.

All I have is:

journalctl | grep -i libreoffice
sty 03 20:00:21 p14s plasmashell[2175]: QString::arg: 2 argument(s) missing in libreoffice-startcenter
sty 03 20:00:21 p14s systemd[1951]: Started LibreOffice - Office.

Re: [SOLVED] While starting LibreOffice, the computer froze

try running libreoffice in safe mode from the terminal, then revert the changes you made:

libreoffice --safe-mode

   --safe-mode         Starts in a safe mode, i.e. starts temporarily with a   
                       fresh user profile and helps to restore a broken        
                       configuration.

That helped but maybe you are able to tell me why removing config files didn't work?
