Using `s` while cursor is over file in nvim-tree produces error: No application knows how to open URL

[JesseBot]

Description

When I try to open a file in a split using s, I get an error and the file does not open at all. It happens with all filetypes.

Example of the error:

[NvimTree] 'system_open failed with return code 1: \nNo application knows how to open URL file:///Users/friend/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/packer/start/nvim-tree.lua/CONTRIBUTING.md (Error
 Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-10814 "kLSApplicationNotFoundErr: E.g. no application claims the file" UserInfo={_LSLine=1538, _LSFunction=runEvaluator}).\n'

I don't have a mailcap file or anything for mimetypes in my home directory, but not sure why it doesn't default to nvim anyway.

Thank you for your time and continuing to maintain this project!

end

Steps to reproduce

I did this from the ~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/packer/start/nvim-tree.lua directory:

1. nvim -nu /tmp/nvt-min.lua
2. :NvimTreeOpen
3. CTRL+ww (to get to the nvim-tree split)
4. 11j (to get to the CONTRIBUTING.md file)
5. s (to try and open it in a split)

Expected behavior

No response

Actual behavior

No response

s defaults to system open. See help g?.

<C-x> and <C-v> are used to open a file in a split horizontally and vertically.

Closing, please comment if that doesn't address your issue.
