Hi, ive installed Arduino 2.0 beta and i have a problem with opening the ino files.I think it might be a problem since it doesnt happen with older version of Arduino IDE.If i right click on a ino file and choose Open with... option , the IDE doesnt open the file.It opens with an example file that came with the IDE install. What should i do to be able to open the files right clicking on them and choose IDE 2.0 and not form the app?

This is a known issue being tracked here:
opened 12:39PM - 11 Jan 21 UTC
closed 03:39PM - 23 Feb 22 UTC
conclusion: resolved
topic: code
os: macos
type: imperfection
criticality: high
**Describe the bug**
On macOS it is not possible to open a file directly from t… he Finder.
This possible with the classic Arduino IDE.
On double click or right click / open with... starts the Pro IDE but not with right file
**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Go to Finder
2. Open a folder with an .ino file inside
3. Double click for opening
4. IDE opens but not with the file you clicked
**Expected behavior**
It should possible to open an .ino file directly from the Finder, like on Classic IDE.
Also with a message when there is no right folder -> auto create a folder
**Desktop (please complete the following information):**
- OS: macOS 10.15.7
- Version: Alpha 0.1.3

### Motivation
We want to add 2 functionalities to the ide
- associate a file … type (namely, `.ino` files)
- allow the drag and drop of a file over the icon (macOS only) and open the relevant files
### Change description
DRAFT: the following changes are just a proposal;
- file association is done via electronBuilder + `template-package.json` configuration
- files to be opened are handled in `electron-main-applicatoin.ts`
### Additional Notes
See comments in the attached [Jira Task](https://arduino.atlassian.net/browse/ATL-372)
### Reviewer checklist
* [ ] PR address a single concern.

Thank you for reply, i hope they solve this issue because sometimes is harder to open the files from inside the app while that file is in a folder inside another folder, inside another folder...
