Description:
*Below issue(s) began occurring immediately after upgrading Mac OS to Catalina*

- After executing a query, I try to download the result set by clicking the "Export/Import > Export recordset to an external file"
- Regardless of if I select "CSV", "CSV (; separated)", or "Excel Spreadsheet", the exported file always comes out as a "TextEdit" Document

----[For better reports, please attach the log file after submitting. You can find it in /Users/nitikadumera/Library/Application Support/MySQL/Workbench/log/wb.log]

How to repeat:
1. Select * from table
2. Export results as .csv

I recently updated to 8.0.20 and now MySQL workbench is exporting into a document format no matter which format I select.
