OS Ventura Spotlight show files with finder Icon and don't open its

I have the same problem for excel files. have you found a work around?

yes I have the same problem...... makes spotlight useless

I seem to only be having the problem with files in my dropbox. Unfortunately, I keep most of my files there.

Thanks, this has worked for me too! Thanks!

It's true! it works! Thank you so much!

I just updated to 13.2.1. Searchlight is still not opening files in my Dropbox. Did you have to do anything to get Searchlight to behave correctly?

I tried this, l can see the files but can't drag drop them very annoyning? (using dropbox)

thanks this worked for me as well!

As weird as it seems this solution worked for me too.. so far. This makes absolutely no sense, but thank you so much for the fix!

Huzzah! The update really did fix it. What a difference. Thanks to Apple, although it's a shame it took so long!

Hello

On my side, I fixed using this the following way: this is related to Dropbox beta version or something like this. Just open dropbox settings and press "Leave beta" - and you will get previous version of dropbox with old location of folder. I don't know why it happens and why dropbox forced me to install that (maybe I missed some checkbox).

After that, I recommend to go to Settings->Siri and Spotlight->Spotlight privacy and then add Dropbox folder, close window, go back and remove Dropbox folder. This will force Spotline to re-index.

Fixed on my side!
