John, Unfortunately Windoz likes to change file associations when it updates. To fix this Open the Windows File Explorer, the File Folder icon in the Dashboard. Then open the folder that you have your file in; ie if it’s on your desktop it will be in the folder “Desktop”. Select your file then click the the Triangle (down arrow) next to Open and choose Open With. Choose OpenOffice Writer from the list, check the box for Open All Files With This Extension With This App and then click the button Open.
