fileopen takes more than one minute to open an existing file. I go to another program and use it while I am waiting. This occurs in both Windows 10 and 11.
Likely bug 42673.
@reporter: without a sample document this report is rather useless.
This is also happening to me. The only thing different is that Windows 11 as of 2 days ago updated to 2023-04 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5025239). 1. If I open Calc and attempt to open an .ods file it takes between 30 seconds and a minute to open. I had success one time creating a new .ods file. It did at first open quickly. But now it doesn't. I did find that once a file is open then either left open or closed, others then load quickly as they should. DW
Created attachment 186731 [details] This is a file I just created and it takes over 30 seconds to open. Attached ods file just created that takes over 30 seconds to open. Once it is open however, all other files open quickly. It's only the first file that is a problem. DW
It's not just Calc either. Writer is doing the same thing.

When a calc file in the LibreOffice file list is clicked to open it, not only does the file not open immediately, but LibreOffice freezes as well, so that the window cannot be minimized. Another application window must be opened on top of it to get other work done while waiting for the file to open. Once the first calc file does open, others open immediately as long as LibreOffice is open. If LibreOffice is closed, the problem starts all over again.
@Dennis, what about the question from comment 7? > Maybe some network printer installed, not available.
It is true I have a laser printer that is not turned on. However, LibreOffice Writer (latest version of LO) does not have a problem with this, nor does any other application outside of LibreOffice. Writer used to have a problem on earlier editions, but it was fixed.

(In reply to Dennis Wage from comment #12) > It was an unavailable printer. But, my question is why? Dennis: you might notice that Dennis Wage continues to have this problem with Writer, too. No, it was not fixed, it's just you don't see this problem with your current *documents* or *system setup*. Dennis Wage: the "why" is because LibreOffice uses the information *reported by printer driver* for some things; e.g., for pagination in Calc. Unfortunately, obtaining this information is not done "in background", but rather, the program waits until the information is returned. Whenever the printer driver needs some time to either communicate with printer, or to discover that the printer is unavailable, that timeout "hangs" LibreOffice. When does this happen? When the printer *used by the current document* is unavailable. Two options here: either the current document does not have a specific printer configured, and then *the system default printer is used*, and that happens to be unavailable - in this case, people would tend to see this hang almost independently of the document; or the current document has a specific (non-default) printer configured, which happens to be unavailable. In this latter case, only specific documents would suffer; and in this case, the option to not apply the printer configuration from the document would help (unlike the former case). But the underlying problem is the same. Yes this is a bug, I do not say that it's OK. I only explain the status quo. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 42673 ***
