Why do Word docs take so long to open?

[Guest]

Occasionally, I double-click a Word doc icon within a folder and it takes two
to three full minutes to open. It's not the whole computer or other software
that's slow; it's just that one function. Any ideas?

The email address to respond to is (e-mail address removed). Thank you.
