           Summary: Writer docs saved as .docx are read by MS Word and
                    Pages as having no extension
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.4.2.1 rc
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium

Description:
I work in LibreOffice Writer at home and used never to have a problem saving
docs as .docx and opening them at work in MS Office.  Now they won't open and
the doc appears in folders as having no extension, even when I put one in again
manually.  Pages can't read them either, though it will accept manually added
extensions.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.click 'save as' in a writer document
2.select .docx
3.close document
4.open document in MS=Word
5. MS-Word says it can't open extensionless files.
6. Manually add .docx to document name.
7. Click to open, but doesn't work.

Actual Results:  
Document didn't open

Expected Results:
Document should have opened in MS-Word as a Word document.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Pages can open the document as a Pages document if I manually add the .docx
extension.
