Visual Studio 2019 “Open With…” BimlExpress Files Error “The Parameter is incorrect”

Question

I cannot open any biml files in VS2019.

When I attempt to open or designate with "Open With..." I am presented with an error.

• I've restarted windows.
• Un/re-installed VS2019.
• Microsoft DataTools and BimlExpress.

And the issue won't clear up. Any thoughts would be much appreciated!
