Is there any way I can overcome it, in any way?

I'm totally new to Calibre, and I do hope you more or less understand what I mean
Install the "Open With" plug-in.
If your format is EPUB, then Instal Sigil (next forum down)
Open with is pre-configured for Sigil.
You can also set a 'Custom Open with' for other formats to use any installed (format-compatible) editor.

Open With Edits
do their thin the file Within the Library , use care.
