The problem is that when you launch a MS app for the first login on a computer it takes around 10 minutes to startup.

I'm guessing that it's trying to register over the internet. Are these computers connected to the internet when this happens ? Are you behind a firewall ? I'd guess that they try to contact Microsoft HQ for 10 minutes and then give up.


If I logout and log back in, no problem Office launches in under 5 seconds. Nice!

First time only. Part of the registration process.

But if I move to another computer the whole process needs to be repeated taking another 10 minutes.

Correct. Different computer == different installation.
