Description Marco A.G.Pinto 2017-12-14 19:59:46 UTC 
I have uninstalled all versions of LO from the other laptop, both the 5.x and the 6.0 developer.

I installed 6.0 beta 2 and the .OXT file I had on the desktop no longer shows the extension icon since Windows/LO6 no longer sees it associated.

Double-clicking in the .OXT opens a window asking which application to use to open the file.

In simple words: if I only have one LO installed, it should associate the files, I believe, so it is a bug.

Update:

Is seems all file associations were lost.

MS Word 2016 opens all .ODT files and if we right-click on the documents and select to "Open With", LO 6.0 doesn't appear in the list of valid programs.

In simple words, it is just like LO 6.0 beta 2 wasn't installed in Windows.

If I'm not wrong, because it's a beta version. In fact it doesn't replace previous version. Only RC versions are installed as released versions.
