            Bug ID: 128993
           Summary: Annoying delay of 10 seconds when opening Libreoffice
                    Writer files
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.8.2 release
          Hardware: x86 (IA32)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: schregenb.u at gmail.com

Description:
Opening any LibreOffice Writer files take approximately 10 seconds every time
(from a former 1 second). This always happens regardless of the filesize, and
has been happening for every version since 6.0.7+ to 6.2.8 (which is the
version I'm using now). Version 6.0.7 was the last version, that opened the
files without any delay (which means within 1 second). 
I noticed however that when I cut off the internet, the issue doesn't happen
anymore. Then even 6.2.8 starts up within 1 second. 
My assumption is, that LibreOffice checks something related to the internet on
startup. This may be updates or something else. Someone on Stackoverflow wrote
it could be searching for a Network printer or so. 


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create any LibreOffice Writer file, Save and Close
2. Doubleclick file to open it
3. Wait...

Actual Results:
File opens after approximately 10 seconds

Expected Results:
File should open after 1 seconds


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
I'm assuming the issue is caused by LibreOffice searching something
internet-related (updates, network printer). When I cut off internet, the file
immediately opens. 
This issue only happens when no other LibreOffice files are open. When you
already have another LibreOffice file open, additional files will open
immediately. 

The issue also happens not only on Writer, but also when starting up the
LibreOffice "Main Application" (the main application which has a side menu to
create different LibreOffice documents). This application starts up, shows the
gray background (but without the side bar) - but there is again 10 seconds
delay - until the sidebar appears and you can click anything.
