How to add file types to Safari's safe file list in Catalina?

This thread was already opened a few weeks ago - it seems that there was no result. I face the same situation with citrix and .ica files. App is downloaded and i need to open in a second step which works but is annoying. Tried TextEditor which does not work and struggle with usage of Terminal as explained somewhere else. Anyone here who has a workaround how to solve?

This is how it should look like at the end ....

Have you consulted the third party developer site/ Support


Verify your third party software is up to date:

An ICA file is an Independent Computing Architecture (ICA) file used by Citrix application servers. It contains configuration information for connecting to different servers and may link to a published application or to a server desktop environment.


Citrix Workspace App Launcher is unable to launch .


Please contact CITRIX support.

If you do not see it, you may have to add your application to

>System Preferences>Security&Privacy>Privacy> Full Disk Access (or corresponding folder)

Unlock the padlock to make changes.
