Steps to reproduce the bug
- Navigate to any JSON file
- Tap it to open
- Choose an action for File Manager
Expected behavior
The JSON file should be treated as a text file and File Manager action should open the built-in text editor.
Actual behavior
JSONs are treated as archive files, what makes no sense. It opens the same window as for ZIP files, but shows nothing.
As an additional note: when I manually choose open as text file after selecting the file, it correctly opens the text editor. However, that adds unnecessary extra steps and I don't know any archive format that is saved as JSON.
Screenshots/Screen recordings
No response
Additional information
I don't know if it's of any relevance, but sometimes you may not have an action for JSON files from File Manager. I didn't have it when I had Material Files, but after uninstalling it, I see the Fossify File Maager's action again.
