registerFileHandle - Cannot read parquet file from local file system - parquet too small

[NicoN13]

What happens?

I am trying to read a local parquet file by using the 'registerFileHandle' method. It appears as if the file is being registered, but whenever I execute a query on it I receive the following error:

Invalid Input Error: File 'local.parquet' too small to be a Parquet file

I see the same issue has been raised here: #1134 (comment)
However, seems like they gave up and resorted to using 'registerFileBuffer'.

The function that I use to register a file is as follows:

async function registerLocalFile() {
        // Let user pick file
        const [fileHandle] = await window.showOpenFilePicker();
        await db.registerFileHandle('local.parquet', fileHandle, 2, true);
        console.log("File HandleRegistered...");
    }

To Reproduce

Try and register any local parquet file on your device.

I have a valid, non-corrupt parquet file of size 5mB.
