@rosedomini: cat "/Applications/Sublime Text.app/Contents/Info.plist" and look at the value of CFBundleIdentifier
can I extend to specific extension file type, such as *.log, *.cfg etc ?

Hello!
I have the same problem. How did you solve it?
Restart Finder after the above command via: COMMAND + ALT + ESC, scroll down the list and select "Finder" and press "Relaunch".
Works fine here with MacOS Catalina Version 10.15.4 (19E266).
No errors, but no changes either on Catalina 10.15.6.
