22.2 Beta breaks the version selector

After I installed the 22.2 Beta, if I try to open a model via the version selector, the windows share GUI opens instead. (It's the entry above 'Open With' in the right click menu, in case that helps)

I'm not seeing this issue with 22.2 beta. You might try uninstalling 22.2 beta and the version selector and then reinstall the beta and see if it works then.

After some more trial and error I found that it is not the beta that leads to the issue. It seems it's related to the number of installed versions/options in the 'open with' list. After uninstalling a different version, the selector works again.

On the flip side, if I install an one more version than before, the selector is not visible in the list at all and the entry for the 22.2 beta now opens the share interface.

So this seems to be an issue/limitation with Windows.
