I'm using a Note 13 Pro 5G with Hyper OS v2.0.11.0 VNREUXM.

When I try to open a file, like an APK, the Open With dialog opens and offers various apps that I can use to open the file, including Package Installer and Termux, but when I select Package Installer and click Just Once or Always it either just closes or gives an error about "IntentResolver keeps stopping".

The same thing happens with other types of files. For example with PDFs, the dialog only offers one option, Open with Orion Viewer, and clicking Just Once or Always either just closes it or throws up the "IntentResolver" error, However, the dialog has an additional section titled "Use a different app" that lists several apps and if I click on Drive PDF Viewer (there's no Just Once or Always option to select in this section) that opens the PDF. So I imagine if this addition section appeared when trying to open APKs, I could select Package Installer there and it would work.

I read that this bug is caused by having Second Space enabled, but I need to use that and I also need to be able to open files, so is there a fix for this that doesn't require me to disable a key feature of HyperOS?
 
You're on a wrong forum because this is for a Xiaomi.eu custom ROM and you are using a stock ROM. But, until Xiaomi fixes it you need to turn system optimization back on from developer options.

Thanks for the suggestion but there's no System Optimization setting in my developer options. The only thing I can see that mentions optimization is App Cache optimization.
