Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I want to be able to open a file without setting a file association or navigating the open file dialog

Describe the solution you'd like Like almost all editors, dragging a file from Explorer onto it should open it

Additional context I know there can be problems with permissions and admin levels so maybe this works under some circumstances. I don't know. I did try installing from winget and downloading the msibundle from github. No luck either way. I suspect this might also be some crippling limitation of the universal windows apps versus more nativey apps. In any case, this one is a deal breaker for me so I'm curious to see if I'm missing something.
