            Bug ID: 125769
           Summary: Save as" offers .ott as default file type
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.6.3 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: orwel01 at gmail.com

Description:
If you create in WIN10 a new .odt file from your template (I have not tested if
default template is also affected) and you use the Save as command/button, you
get a default offer from LO (in the Save as window that pops up) to save the
file as template (.ott). This is strange, as if you do not notice it, you
resave the file as a template. This behaviour is not present if you open a new
file directly in LO (File/New file/Text document), which uses the same default
template of yours and you use the command Save as. In this case LO offers you
saving it as .odt file, which is correct.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create your own template (mine is located on the disk E: in my own
directory,  LO is located on C: in the default directory).
2. In Win-Explorer create through right click/New a New text document (Open
document), which is .odt.
3. Use Save as command 


Actual Results:
In the Save as window Lo offers to save the file as template (.ott) by default.
See File type.

Expected Results:
In the Save as window LO should offer to save the file as text file (.odt) by
default.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes

Additional Info:
Actual Version: 6.1.6.3 (x64)
Build ID: 5896ab1714085361c45cf540f76f60673dd96a72
CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; 
Locale: sk-SK (sk_SK); Calc: group threaded

May be there is something with the location of default path of templates, which
is C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice\4\user\templates
- I tested on this default installation of the user account (reseting it) - I
used the original profile created by the installation of LO . There is no
sub-directory named "template". The bug is present. Adding a empty directory
"template" did not solve the problem.


I do not know, which version is affected as first.
