Still Reproducible.

Possibly something going on with Windows. Explanation on why its happening
below

.xls files can be opened together simultaneously, however when paired with
anything else (tested with .csv and .ods) the open option is not present. 

Reason:
When selecting 2 .xls files, the open option is there with an icon representing
Calc. When selecting 2 files such as .csv and .ods together, the open button
has a different icon representing LibreOffice. It looks as if Windows detects
Calc as the application that should handle .xls while detecting the LibreOffice
application as what should handle everything else. Since Windows wants to use 2
"different" applications, the open button is not present. 

This is backed up by the fact that you can open LibreOffice and select "open
file" and select .xls with any file type and it will open them just fine.
Further, if you select a .xls file in file explorer and click "open with" ->
"choose another appl" and select "soffice.exe" (exe to launch LibreOffice) and
finally, select "always" instead of "just once" then the option to open .xls
files with any other file is present on right click.
