Right... So instead of solving the problem for the most commonly used files you
believe that is is easier to instruct users to reinstall LibreOffice every time
the associations are broken???
TBH I would rather have an option to select which files are associated with
LibreOffice instead of the installer using a black box approach...

Again, right... And in case you are unaware, Microsoft resets file associations
that are not associated to the program of their liking on every other Windows
10 update. I have had to associate JPG (not exactly a MS file format) to the
program I prefer instead of the MS defined APP several times now on a 6 months
old Windows 10 laptop...
