Description

After upgrading to macOS to the latest version (Big Sur), the system won't start up the Netbeans 12.1 when I clicked the icon.

Strangely, it only starts up by using the terminal. 

/Applications/NetBeans/Apache\ NetBeans\ 12.1.app/Contents/Resources/NetBeans/netbeans/bin/netbeans

I tried to use the above command to find the Netbeans that is working in finder but it looks like this and when I click on it, it shows a text pad instead of starting up Netbeans.

Is there any way that I can open Netbeans by clicking the Netbeans icon?
