OpenWith menu for RTF

Vanilla Win7 x64 Rus / MSO 2010 x86 Rus 

Installed XWiki.org and wanted to have office interoperability so had to install AOOo 340 (1st time on this box, never before nothign like OOo/LO/Symphony)

After that once i've found that strange thing in OpenWith menu

I did not added Calc to thatlist nor did i removed Writer :-)

I can confirm on XP and Win7 that Calc is in the OpenWith list of .rft files.

On Ubuntu 10.04 it's correct.

on Windows
1. Uninstall openoffice
2. verify Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.rtf\OpenWithProgIDs is removed
3. reinstall openoffice
4. check Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.rtf\OpenWithProgIDs, soffice.StarCalcDocument.6 is in the list
5. right-click a .rtf file and check the OpenWith list

defect: Calc exists in the OpenWith list

But Writer is also in the list. I attach my screenshot as attachment.

registry item for RTF

not to me, as u can see in the attachment
in Win7 x64 rus i only have WordPad, WinWord and OOoCalc registered for RTF 

However u can see that primary mapping it ".rtf" -> @="Word.RTF.8"

on your vanilla box w/o MSOffice, that probably would be
".rtf" -> @="opendocument.WriterDocument.1"
or ".rtf" -> @="Wordpad.Document.1"

And maybe your customized "OpenWith" was stored in those reg keys and survived ".rtf" key cleanup.
