[Bug] v6 can't open file like 'dist/report.html'

[wenfangdu]

Command:

open-cli dist/report.html

Works in v5, breaks in v6

Works fine for me on macOS 11. You haven't really included any useful info for me to debug this. Try to look through https://github.com/sindresorhus/open/issues?q=is:issue+is:open+sort:updated-desc and see if your issue is one of those.

I confirm this issue on Windows 10 (node 14.15.1)

And yes, it's working pretty well on open-cli 5.0.0. So I suggest considering it as a new Windows-specific bug.

I was trying to execute open-cli out/index.html

console.log(command, cliArguments, childProcessOptions); before childProcess.spawn in index.js of "open" package shows this:

on open@6.4.0:

cmd [ '/c', 'start', '""', '/b', 'out/index.html' ] {}

(and this works)

on open@7.3.0:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell [
  '-NoProfile',
  '-NonInteractive',
  '–ExecutionPolicy',
  'Bypass',
  '-EncodedCommand',
  'UwB0AGEAcgB0ACAAIgBgACIAbwB1AHQALwBpAG4AZABlAHgALgBoAHQAbQBsAGAAIgAiAA=='
] { windowsVerbatimArguments: true }

(and this doesn't works)

#214 must fix this problem in the open library. Then it will be necessary to update this dependency up to the new version.
