Berlin, 3 November 2026 – The Document Foundation today announced the 
release of LibreOffice 26.2.7, the seventh maintenance update to the 
LibreOffice 26.2 branch. Building on the major feature release published 
on 4 February 2026, this update delivers targeted bug fixes and 
stability improvements contributed by a global community of developers 
and QA engineers.

Among the changes, LibreOffice 26.2.7 fixes a crash on startup on macOS 
27, restores audio playback in presentations on Windows, resolves 
several DOCX round-trip problems, and adds support for Web Query (.iqy) 
files in Calc. The bundled Python interpreter has been upgraded to 
version 3.12.16. LibreOffice 26.2 requires Windows 10 or newer.

This is the last release of the LibreOffice 26.2 branch, which will 
reach the end of its life on 30 November 2026. Users who install this 
version should plan to update to LibreOffice 26.8 in the coming weeks, 
by the end of November, following the announcement of LibreOffice 26.8.3.
