Description

System Information
Operating system: Mac OS Sierra 10.12.6, Mac OS Mojave 10.14.4, Mac OS Catalina 10.5.1
Graphics card: Intel HD 6000

Blender Version
Broken: (example: 2.80 release, 2.81 beta 2019-11-11)
Worked: (optional) 2,79

Short description of error
When opening file from finder (and when blender is not yet launched), blender opens default scene instead of opening scene in file.
This is due to MacOS firstly opening blender "as app", and THEN (if you click one more time on file in finder) opening scene in file. IF BLENDER IS RUNNING THE BUG WON'T WORK.
This bug works with any blender file, though with 2.79 everything was fine.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  1. Desirably reboot Mac OS just to be sure OR kill all processes of "blender.app"
  2. Open any ".blend" file from finder
  3. "Blender.app" launches with default scene
  4. Open ".blend" file again
  5. Now file from ".blend" loads properly, and proper scene is shown in "Blender.app"
