I am running Manjaro linux KDE and am enjoying. But opening office & zip file is a pita for me. Look the screenshot. My zip file opens by libreoffice (or WPS). And if I correct it in file properties to point it to open by ark, then office files start opening by ark. The file type seem to get added automatically. I can never open any zip or office file without right click. Weird problem. I wonder if I am the only one too suffer from it. Though, no other filetypes are in conflict like this except zip and office files. I couldn't find any settings/options to correct it. Duckduckgoing also doesn't give any post. Any help input would be well appreciated. Thanks.office-zip filetype conflict
