The "Open with" option is grayed out in "Get Info" window.

After upgrading to macOS Ventura, I cannot use the “Open with” option in the “Get Info” window as it is grayed out. I can right click on a file in the Finder to open the file in another app, but I want to change the default for the file type. I tried switching to an Admin account, but it didn’t help.


In this case, I want to change the default application from Safari to Firefox for “webloc” files. In System Settings, Desktop & Dock, the Default web browser is set to Firefox, but all “webloc” file types open in Safari.
