Public bug reported:
When i try to open any .step files, I would expect for it to open my
slicer (a program for that) which happens with other 3D-model files
(such as .stl) but instead it opens it with my default text editor. If I
right click -> Open with... at the bottom of the window it says: "Plain
text document"
