Hello,
I just installed the latest version .271 and noticed a problem.
You cannot open files (e.g., *.php) directly from Windows Explorer, for example, if WeBuilder is already open.
When you click on the file, WeBuilder comes to the foreground, but the file is not opened.
If WeBuilder is closed and you click on the file, WeBuilder opens and the file is also opened.

I have now reinstalled version .270, and everything is working normally.

Opening files was one thing that we were working on, so it's possible that something is different there, but I can't reproduce the problem. Is there anything special about the file path being opened or any other info that might hep to reproduce this issue?

No, after the update, I tried to open PHP files in WeBuilder by double-clicking them in Windows Explorer... WeBuilder was already open.
The file itself did not open, only WeBuilder was brought to the foreground... as if.

When I closed WeBuilder and then opened the file from Windows Explorer by double-clicking, it worked normally... WeBuilder started and the file opened.

After downgrading to version .270, it worked again immediately.
I tried it three times, and the same thing happened each time.

The OS is MS Windows 11 Pro 24H2 Build 26100.6584 (if that helps).

I think I found it, the fix will be in the next update. I can't reproduce the bug on any of my computers, but there we definitely an issue with the file name sending to the main process.
