    Don't use "open by file extension". Use Visual Studio.

    In the Unity Hub, when you install your Unity version, there's an option to also install Visual Studio. You don't necessarily need it, but it's highly recommended to have a functioning IDE, and VS is good for that and included.

    If you haven't installed it yet, you can add it to your installation in the Unity hub as well.

    "Something went wrong" is not very specific. Is that literally what it tells you, or is there an actual error message?
