--- Comment #10 from Mike Kaganski <mikekagan...@hotmail.com> ---
Indeed, LibreOffice knows the \\?\ prefix (and its UNC variant). See e.g.
https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sal/osl/w32/file_url.cxx?r=d7910847#48

The problem is, that we somehow do not handle it in the command line
parameters.
The reproduction is simple.

Try to run on Windows:

> path\to\soffice \\?\C:\Path\to\file.txt

See that it fails (LibreOffice starts and silently exits - our usual behavior,
when file is not found).

Then run this:

> notepad \\?\C:\Path\to\file.txt

and see that it opens OK.

Check also:

> path\to\soffice C:\Path\to\file.txt

to see that the file could be opened in LO.
