for the last few months it has taken a long time for documents to open from Teams using office Mac. I have a Parallels partition on my machine and the same documents open in seconds using Office Windows. Casing point I have a Powerpoint presentation with about 100 slides in it (yes larger file size - 56MB but nothing that used to be a major issue). This document opening from Teams using Office Mac took over 5 minutes to open. The same file from the same location took 26 seconds (in its entirety) using Windows. The same thing occurs when saving
Any ideas? I have looked at the forums and tried a couple of things suggested but nothing seems to have worked as yet

WHY IS IT TAKING PPT (AND SCREENSHOTS) SO LONG TO OPEN.....OR THEY ACTUALLY DO NOT OPEN, ON MY NEW MAC DESKTOP????
For this issue was related to anti-virus software I had (Sophos Home) is was causing ever office document to open very slowly from a network location.
Once I shutdown the software all was normal.
