I never had any problems with that. Good for you. I had, solved, and have again, this problem.

'My' problem is with *all* files (.odt, .ods, .doc, etc.), located in a number of directories on a SSD and a HD. And I could perfectly open all of them via double click (or 'Open with' after right click) before installation of version 4.0.4+ (possibly the first 4.0 version I did install, but I'm not 100% sure). Tangential comment: Since I posted this ('my') problem on the French forum.openoffice.org, I do encounter a lot of incredulity, when not veiled hostility. I can understand that 'my' problem may be a rare, or even completely idiosyncratic one, not worth bothering with for devs. If that's the case, just let me know. I do like LibreOffice and am really grateful to the Document Foundation and all the devs who work hard to improve LibO. But I'm not married with it: As I don't have this problem with OpenOffice, I can, well, spare everyone time and attention in switching to it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
