Did some of my own testing, starting with a clean image of Windows 7 Professional x64. Installed AOO 4.1.1 and created and saved files with Writer, Calc and Impress. Did the upgrade to Windows 10. Confirmed that I could read and write the previously saved files. Tried both opening the files from within the apps as well as double-clicking the documents from the File Explorer. I experienced no file permission issues.
