NOT reproducible with "LibreOffice 3.4.3 RC2 - WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) German UI [OOO340m1 (Build:302)]" @Reporter: Please - Attach a sample document (not only screenshot) - Attach screenshots with comments if you believe that that might explain the problem better than a text comment. Best way is to insert your screenshots into a DRAW document and to add comments that explain what you want to show - Contribute a step by step instruction containing every key press and every mouse click how to reproduce your problem (and if possible how to created a sample document from the scratch) - add information -- How you installed LibO (Server? ...?, Custom or defaut? ...") -- Whether .odt document are assigned to WRITER in OS -- what exactly is unexpected (nothing happens? Error message?) -- concerning your PC -- concerning your OS (Version, Distribution, Language) -- concerning your LibO localization (UI language) –- Libo settings that might be related to your problems -- how you launch LibO and how you opened the sample document -- everything else crossing your mind after you read a.m. URL - Reported with Bug Submission Assistant -
Created attachment 51846 [details] .odt file's registry
OS: Windows XP Pro SP 3 LibO Version: 3.4.3 Langauge: English LibO Starting method: Quickstarter not active. Documents are oppened trhough the LobO's main dialog box. Behavior: When clicking on any . odt file's icon (at desktop or windows explorer's windows) nothing happens. The file isn't opppened. WRITER doesn't start. [ This behavior is NOT present with other LibO's documents: .ods. ODP, etc.]
@Ramon: do you encounter this problem with current release (3.4.5) ? If it is the case, I suggest you to repair your installation of LO. Did you install another office suite which may have preempted opening odt files ? As you certainly know, you can assign odt files to LibreOffice Writer from Explorer. Best regards. JBF
Hi: Happy new year! I've installed the LO 3.4.5. I've removed and reinstalled LO, and the problem persist. I have MS Office 2003, but it wan't a trouble before it begins failing. By the moment I've been opening through File --> Open options on Writer's menu. I've been thinking about registries. I'll this: remove LO suite, erease all registries related to LO and then reinstall it (I prefer intall LO 3.5!) Thanks for your attention. Regards *Ramón E.

NOT reproducible with "LibreOffice 3.4.5 German UI [Build ID: OOO340m1 (Build:502)]" in VirtualBox and WIN XP (SP1 32Bit) This still is not a valid bug report. @Ramon: Please ask for assistance in a user mailing list, this is the wrong place for your Problem. It's definitively not a LibO problem, and you are thinking much too sophisticated, there are lots of things you should try ('WIN Task Bar -> Start -> System Settings -> Folder Options -> File Types' for example) before you do such Registry handicrafts.
This is a Writer issue (or, in reality, it just looks like one; see comment #4 and comment #6), therefore changed the 'Component' field appropriately.
