How it looks with Word

If a large file is opened from the file manager with double click, there is currently no feedback that opening is in progress. This can be problematic on slower systems, for example thin clients/virtualized/remote systems.

Word shows a splash screen, mimicking that could be a solution here.

You sure?  We do get a splash screen on Windows 10 os/DE on file open launch from Windows Explorer file manager. This is without Quickstart.
