shell.openExternal opens system prompt to choose an app

Adobe XD UXP Plugin API

When I’m opening some web url XD opens browser and by some reason shows system prompt to choose the app:

await uxp.shell.openExternal(url);

and I’m getting on Windows following window:

On mac it works pretty the same way:

Does anybody know how to get rid of this window?

What’s the URL you are trying to open? only https works!

I do use https. It opens browser in the background with requested page but in the same time shows that prompt to choose the app.

Hmm, that’s strange. What’s the URL? I will try to replicate this on my end.

Ha, I got it, the problem is that regular anchor behavior was fixed and it leads to kind of double click.
