Description: This problem started with LO v24.8.3.2 so I updated to 24.8.4.2 and still cannot double-click in Windows 11 file explorer nor right-click and open-with. When I drag-drop into the open app a dialogue returned says, "Read Error. Data could not be read from the file." The icons Windows Explorer files all changed so they have a tag on the icon that looks like a yellow folder. I created a test document and it does not have the tag on the icon and opens when I dbl-click or drag-drop it into the app. I will try to use a previous version to see if that helps. Actual Results: I open Win 11 File Explorer, double-click ANY ODT or TXT file and nothing happens. Not even an error textbox. Same with "Window > Open-With". So far only exception is the test file I just created. Expected Results: Open my files for editing. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: I backed up and deleted my user profile and started LO again. No good. Same error response. Note: I have an ODS file I use once a week and it has no "tag" on it and opens by dbl-clicking.

Created attachment 198364 [details] ODT I created with sample icon and yellow file folder tag added to icon I used Win 11 Snippet app to copy a sample icon so you can see what I am calling a tag.
Have you checked the properties of any of these files?
Please check if the file is on One drive and you have access to oneDrive: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/does-anyone-know-what-is-happening-with-the-yellow/b2593b69-b24b-4e2b-af11-bfc272154dde Also check file properties as suggested in comment 2. Probably not a LO's issue.
