Hello,
I have just installed lyx.
I can't open or save a file in Lyx : the common dialog box doesn't display.
Thank you
LyX ⇒ Can't open or save
NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.
And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

I think this kind of question is better suited for LyX mailing list, since it's more technical in nature then LaTeX-related. Nevertheless, be it here or LyX's mailing list, you really should provide more infos like operating system you're using, which version of LyX did you install, did you encounter any problems during the installation and from where did you download the installation file. Also, which TeX installation do you have installed (TeXLive or MikTeX)?
EDIT: In case you're using Windows (especially W7), try to reinstall LyX and do "couple of reboots" (according to Ben85's experience).
