Bump

Replying Because I am having the same issue. Right clicking a .dotx file shows "Edit" as the darkened default option. Right clicking an excel template (.xltx) has "New" as the default option and opens a new spreadsheet as desired.

I already ran quick repair (no effect) and plan on running online repair tonight when I leave work.

Using Windows 10 Pro and Office 365.
