           Summary: Writer v24 on Ubuntu: cannot open docx file in hidden
                    folder
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 24.8.4.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)

Description:
When doubleclicking a .docx file in a hidden folder on Ubuntu, an error message
“Access to … was denied” is shown by LibreOffice Writer v24.

If I do the same with LibreOffice Writer v7, this just works and the file is
opened in Writer.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a folder x in your home folder.
2. Copy a docx file in there.
3. In the Files app, double-click the docx file → Writer opens up successfully
(OK).
4. Close Writer
5. Rename folder x to .x
6. In the Files app, double-click the docx file → Writer shows error (NOT OK).

Actual Results:
An error "Access to ... was denied" is shown.

Expected Results:
Files in a hidden folder should open successfully.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
