Default File open dialog default path

User working in Word selects File | Open, then opens a document from a
network drive. Each time user selects File | Open after that, it continues
to default to the last path opened on the network drive (this is the expected
behavior). However, if user has Word open and locks computer using the
Windows + L keys, then unlocks it and selects File | Open again in Word, it
defaults back to My Documents folder (or whatever your default file location
is set for in Word). Can anyone explain or suggest a solution?

Default File open dialog default path

my problem is that the expected behavior isn't consistent on all network
folders. how do i make it so that this behavior is what happens everytime a
network folder is accessed?
