[Solved] Installing LO 3.6.0 Beta2: no file association

Post by jeffrey1 »

When install LibreOffice 3.6.0 Beta2 the LO docs that I have have no extensions that are supposed to be there.
I mean if I have a template there icon for that extension is a generic one.
This goes for any LO extension (.ott - .odt)

But when I install LibreOffice 3.5.5 RC1 there is a LO association.

Am I doing something wrong or is this the normal process until it comes out of beta?
I normally uninstall any previous version before I install a new one.

Usually, betas don't install the desktop integration (files icons, default opening with the application, ...) because they are still betas not recommended for real work.
RC are would-be true final version so they do install all those features.

Please add '[Solved]' at the beginning of your first post title (edit button) if your issue has been fixed.
