Bug ID: 116694
Summary: Replace Quickstarter by taking advantage of the
Windows native "always running" startup method
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.1.0.0.alpha0+ Master
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: todven...@suomi24.fi
>From https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116142#c5
(In reply to V Stuart Foote from comment #5)
> Aside from the superfluous GUI menu of launchers in the Windows system tray,
> the only thing Quickstart "adds" is a continually running an instance of
> soffice.bin. No question that that running instance avoids some start up
> overhead--e.g. delay of an AntiVirus scan on initial LibreOffice launch, so
> leaving it running can improve response. But on modern desktop/laptop
> hardware it really is not necessary.
>
> And, normal Windows OS DE provides "Startup" (shell:startup) program launch
> methods provide the "always running" support for any application if desired
> and LibreOffice does not need to provide (or maintain) one of our own.
>
> We could simply modify the installer/Tools -> Options "Load LibreOffice
> during system start-up" to drop a launcher there. We don't need all the
> overhead of Quickstart!
