   This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

   • Error! The new UI cannot correctly launch Sublime Text. #36980: Same symptom on Windows — Sublime Text opens File Explorer instead when selected from the "Open with" menu (closed, same screenshot asset)
   • Desktop Linux: 'Open with app' fails for Sublime Text and Zed with os error 2 #20195: Same root cause on Linux — "Open with app" fails for Sublime Text because the app map uses the display name "Sublime Text" instead of the executable name subl (closed)
   • resolveWindowsAppPath passes [object Promise] instead of actual path — editor launch broken on Windows #27432: Related Windows issue — resolveWindowsAppPath broken due to [object Promise] being passed as path (closed, different root cause but same function)

   A minimum workaround would look like this:

   diff --git a/packages/app/src/components/session/open-in-app.tsx b/packages/app/src/components/session/open-in-app.tsx
   index xxxxxxx..xxxxxxx 100644

   Thanks for the report! OpenCode 2.0 is now out and development is focused on V2, so we're closing issues filed against OpenCode 1. Please upgrade (opencode upgrade --major, details: https://anoma.ly/notes/opencode-2-0), and if this is still relevant on 2.0, reopen this issue or open a new one with your 2.0 version.
