Mike Kaganski <mikekagan...@hotmail.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|UNCONFIRMED |NEW Ever confirmed|0 |1 --- 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. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
