Hello Jacques The only answer to your question is enabling the quick launch option that places some of the LO package in memory during boot of the Windows system. It appears that you have 2 Gigabyte of Ram. Are you willing to take part of it to have part of the LO package reside in RAM to

Hi all Actually I believe this is a feature that is long missing in LO (and OOo before). A user may not want to associate the extensions initially or the extensions might get hijacked by another office suite. I think it would be nice to have such an option in the configuration so I submitted an

Hi :) LibreOffice does seem very slow to open, especially first time after a reboot.  Same on GnuLinux tbh.  The Quickstarter does speed it up a bit but it's the 2nd or subsequent times that it is a lot less slow.  Even then it is slow but is well worth waiting for.  Much better quality

To get the best results, after the checking of the box, you should restart your system. That is what I was told a year or two ago. What you are now saying is a file/document loading issue. How long has it been since you defragged your Atom-based system? The more fragmented the drive it the
