            Bug ID: 94857
           Summary: default template location overwritten by installation
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Installation
          Assignee: [email protected]

Every update of LO changes the registry entry of Windows:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/.odt/LibreOffice.WriterDocument.1/ShellNew - FileName

If you create your own template which should be used by default in Windows
Explorer by right-click menu "New"-Text document (.odt), this template is
stored in the mentioned registry entry
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/.odt/LibreOffice.WriterDocument.1/ShellNew in the value name
"FileName".

After every update of LO this value is set(rewritten) to LO-default:
"C:\Program Files\LibreOffice 5\share\template\shellnew\soffice.odt" which
means you have to edit the registry after every update of LO to change this
value to your own template.

LO installation should not affect this registry entry. This behaviour is
present since I can remember therefor I do not post the earliest version of LO
affected.

Last tested on update to 5.0.2
