Thank you Dieter for commitment.

It is weird. Could it be something with my Windows installation? But i do not
understand why, if it occurs in LO environment. 
The behaviour is still present, i tried (using Separate install GUI) 6.4.2.1.
The same behaviour.


Let me tell you some more specifications:
1. I thought maybe something wrong with my profile, but a default clear profile
brings the same result.
2. I have a registry change for .odt file -
\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.odt\LibreOffice.WriterDocument.1\ShellNew - Default (DWORD)
has the entry "E:\LibreOffice\templates\AKIB_normal.ott" and FileName has the
same entry.
Disk E is a ext4 format (using by paralel Linux installation).

I tried to change the registry entry to point to a blank template from the
fresh install of 6.4.2.1 (copied to mentioned location, but also tried to copy
it to disk D:) and point the registry value on the new path with the same
result - behaviour is present.

If I change the registry value from AKIB_normal.OTT to AKIB_normal.ODT (created
and saved from the .ott file), the behaviour is NOT present. So if i set the
registry to create a new document in Win Explorer from a .odt file, everything
works fine. Can this be the issue? But as I can remember, the value in WIN
registry should point to a template (see my bug 94857) not to a .odt file, or
am I wrong?

3. IMPORTANT: The described behaviour occurs only if I create a new odt
document in Win10 (Enterprise) explorer (right click), and I open it directly
from Explorer (double left click) and use Save as button in LO - I get an offer
by LO-dialog to save as .ott. But, if I open the new created document directly
from LO (Open file), the behaviour is not present - i get a .odt offer in LO
Save as Dialog. It seems, the behaviour of my LO installation is not the same
if you open a file directly from Windows Explorer and from LO Open a file
dialog.

But I can understand, if nobody can reproduce it, it is strange and hard to
work on it :(.
