I have 2 Telegram clients on my MacBook enter image description here ^ /Applications/Telegram.app/Contents/MacOS/Telegram enter image description here ^ /Applications/Telegram.localized/Telegram.app/Contents/MacOS Currently when I click a link, the first one opens. How to have the second one open instead? EDIT: By removing the .app for the first one (Telegram Desktop) from my /Applications folder, links now correctly open in the second one. However as soon as I restore it, links again open in it. Even changing the filename and moving it from /Applications to ~/Desktop, macOS still manages to find it when I hit ENTER on a link in Chrome. enter image description here How to prevent this behaviour? Moreover can anyone shed some light on how macOS is able to track the movement of an app to any location on my filesystem in this manner?
