Hello!
Firstly, files with the .docx/.xlsx/.pptx extension are designed to be used only with Office 2007 or later. However, I believe that OpenOffice will allow you to work with such files, but some formatting commands may not survive the transfer.
Secondly, .desktop files exist in at least three locations:
~/.local/share/applications (selecting 'show hidden' files in File Manager will reveal folders/files that start with a period)
/usr/local/share/applications
/usr/share/applications
Make sure you change all three and you'll be closer to achieving the results you're looking for.

A gun in your hand is worth more than a whole police force on the phone.
