--- Comment #1 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> ---
Installer does not associate itself with XLS files *as default application* if
you don't check a relevant checkbox in installer. However, it indeed registers
itself as an application that is *able* to open them (that is different; and
there may exist multiple such applications installed on the system, only one of
them being the default, i.e. which opens those files when no application is
explicitly specified).
Modern Windows operating systems are smart enough to decide themselves to use
the only one available application able to open the file: i.e., if there's only
one such application installed on your system that can open XLS, and no
application is set as default, Windows will use that installed non-default as
default. That is not a bug of LibreOffice, but a detail of operation of your
OS. The registration of LO as capable of opening its supported file types
should not be disabled.
Closing NOTABUG.
