In Windows, also on Linux, YOU decide how to open a certain file.

For example I can open a PDF file with Adobe, but if I don't have Adobe, and even if I have Adobe I can decide to open with Chrome. It's my decision, not the computer decision.

So, in this case, right click on that file, "Open with...", check "Always open with" and choose LibreOffice Calc.

Everything should be fine now.

I am waiting for your answer. Please!
