            Bug ID: 114412
           Summary: LibreOffice won't open files on a network drive with
                    just a click in file explorer from a cold start
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.4.3.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: craig at arno.com

Description:
When I click on a file in File Explorer or a Shortcut on my desktop for a file
located on a networked drive I get the message
"P:\Documents\Finances\Budget2017.ods does not exist." iff a LibreOffice
instance is -not- already running.

If I start LibreOffice (create an instance), then click on the the
file/shortcut, while an instance of LO is running, then the application (in
this case a spreadsheet) will open as expected.

This looks like an LO network file load driver dependency problem.

Windows 10 OS (Surfacebook), LibreOffice 5.4.3.2 x64, Network drive-Ubuntu
16.04 LTS x64 Linux 4.4.0-101-generic, smbd -V: Version 4.3.11-Ubuntu

I am an experienced user of Windows/Linux and LibreOffice.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure all instances of LO are closed/not running, including any
"auto-start" instances.
2. Double click on a network drive LO file to open for editing (in file
explorer)
3. Observe the error

Actual Results:  
"P:\Documents\Finances\Budget2017.ods does not exist."  (When in fact the file
does exist and is available)

Expected Results:
Expect that all software dependencies for opening a network share file are
loaded/resolved before LO tries to open a file on a network shared drive, thus
allowing the network shared file to be opened, from a LO "cold start".


Reproducible: Always
