描述
### Short summary
Selecting an MSIX app's execution alias under `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\WindowsApps` fails with "Cannot access file."
### Affected version or release
v1.0.26
### Installation context
GitHub Copilot App installed locally on Windows 11 Enterprise (ARM64). The issue affects local applications added through "Open in...".
### What happened?
I tried to add an MSIX-packaged desktop application to "Open in..." in the GitHub Copilot App.
In the "Choose application" file picker, I navigated to `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\WindowsApps` and selected the app execution alias, `skimdown.exe`.
The file picker displayed the following error and did not allow me to select the alias:
> Cannot access file.
The corresponding message in the Japanese UI is `ファイルにアクセスできません。`
The alias itself works correctly when launched from the Windows Run dialog or a terminal. The target application is distributed only as an MSIX package, so there is no conventional unpackaged executable that I can select instead.
### Steps to reproduce
1. Launch GitHub Copilot App v1.0.26 on Windows.
2. Open "Open in..." and select "Choose application".
3. Navigate to `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\WindowsApps`.
4. Select an MSIX App Execution Alias, such as `skimdown.exe`.
5. Click "Open".
6. Observe the "Cannot access file" error.
### Expected behavior
GitHub Copilot App should accept a valid Windows App Execution Alias and register the MSIX-packaged application as an "Open in..." target.
### Additional context
- OS: Windows 11 Enterprise, version 10.0.26200 (build 26200), ARM64
- GitHub Copilot App version: v1.0.26
- Example alias: `skimdown.exe`
- Alias location: `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\WindowsApps`
- Target application distribution: MSIX only

调研方向
Reproduce the failure in the “Open in...” application chooser using the `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\WindowsApps\skimdown.exe` alias on Windows 11. No source file or test is named; trace the chooser’s file-selection validation and verify that a valid MSIX App Execution Alias can be accepted and registered as an “Open in...” target.
