Problem description: opening files with wrong program

Steps to reproduce:
1. Double-click the file xls 
2. at the first opening with the "Windows 8.1" asks what you want to open 
3. Select "LibreOffice Calc" 
4. The file opens with the program "Writer"
5. Formatting of the file is obviously wrong and the file is incomprehensible
6. Further attempt: opening files from the program "Calc" open up new files 
7. However, the file is opened with "Writer" 
Current behavior: xls files are opened by the program "writer"

Expected behavior: opening files with "Calc" as file association

              
Operating System: Windows 8
Version: 4.2.5.2 release
