Yair - please update the Summary to something you know is better.
@andrew-james-heard do you know which file formats have this issue? We have two different code paths for launching files and depending on the file extension, we use the method that works best.
I mentioned LibreOffice writer .odt & calc .ods. I use them the most & are the only ones I've only experienced this huge (like a minute+) slowdown. A bit more than "a while". Delete Files.exe & instantly the opening continues.
unrelated but when ctrl+shift+N is used to create a new folder the textbox no longer has focus, you have to press Tab 1st; doesn't seem worth creating a new bug report for that; pretty sure it used to be the case after ctrl+shift+N you just started typing the name
That is an issue with WinUI and will hopefully be resolved on their end.
WinUI for ctrl+shift+N? Can't be 100% but thought it only started happening recently. Write your own "Enter an item name" dialog?
I just upgraded to 3.7.10 & now the textbox above has initial focus in the dialog when ctrl+shift+N is pressed. Expected?
v3.7.9 had a newer version of WinUI we were testing.
3.7.9 had the reported issue, apparently fixed (changed?) in 3.7.10; it's only a very minor point
Description
sometimes, but only sometimes, when I press Enter on a file (eg. LibreOffice writer .odt or calc .ods) the application takes ages to open. It appears to stall. I discovered if I kill Files.exe from Sysinternals Process Explorer that the application opening resumes. I get the impression Files has temporarily/ incorrectly locked the file. If I open the application from Start menu instead of indirectly by file association, then never a problem. Seems to have started recently. Doesn't happen with Explorer.
