Issue:
I ran LibreOffice on a Win7x64 machine and did a manual association of .ODT files with it (the "Open with ..." operation). Then, when the LibreOffice folder moved, I couldn't re-set the file association.
Resolution:
Open regedit and delete the entire .odt key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.odt
(solution source)

More background:
I had OpenOffice installed, opening ODT files by default. In an effort to fix a problem with OpenOffice quickly, I downloaded the "LibreOffice Still" Portable version to my Downloads folder
and set it as the default viewer. I later moved it to another folder
(where all my other portable applications are located) and just couldn't
fix the old association.
