    I can get it in the args parameter of the main function in windows, but not in macOS.

    int start(int argc, char* argv[]) {
        QApplication* a = new QApplication(argc, argv);
        QStringList args = a->arguments();
    }

      Hi
      MacoS works in other way.
      You app will be sent a QFileOpenEvent and you must respond to that.
