Bug using OpenOffice and Microsoft Office together

Hello,

 

I searched in your FAQ for my problem but could not found a solution.

 

The problem:

I have installed OpenOffice together with Microsoft Office 2019 both with
newest versions. I’m working with Windows 10 Home 64-Bit newest Version.

If I use Windows menus in order to call a new Word document, I cannot find
Microsoft Word:  

  

 

I searched for the reason and finally found the reason: installing
OpenOffice a registry entry reserved for .docx will be changed by OpenOffice
to “OpenOffice.docx”:



 

Normally (if no OpenOffice installed) this entry contains “Word.Document.12”
as I can see in my notebook with Windows 10 Home 64-Bit and Microsoft Office
2010).     



 

 

What to do for a solution?

 

 

Thanks for your help and sincerely
