            Bug ID: 121498
           Summary: Windows: soffice --help/--version doesn't return its
                    output to the console it was run from if LibreOffice
                    is already running
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

On Windows, using --help or --version command line switches doesn't produce its
output in the same window it was put to, when there is an instance of
LibreOffice already running.

It is similar to bug 40225, which was WFM'd possibly after
https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/dfbece50ebaeaf45ea3f016d911b5de7c878afc5.
That commit had fixed only non-Windows case. For Windows, these parameters are
still passed from the secondary soffice.bin process to the primary one using
IPC, and are handled there (using a separate console in that case).
