Public bug reported:

App.open() method call does not return the instance of the opened
application instead it always return null whether application open
successfully or not.

method is "private App openAndWait(int waitTime)". Because of "notFound"
variable is false it returns null. But "appPID" is greater than 0.

sikulixapi - 1.1.1 version
OS - 64 bit windows 10

How to reproduce.

App app = App.open("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft
Office\\root\\Office16\\EXCEL.EXE");

this will return null but excel will be opened successfully.

Method location in App.java class

private App openAndWait(int waitTime) {
    if (isImmediate) {
      appPID = _osUtil.open(appNameGiven);
    } else {
      AppEntry appEntry = makeAppEntry();
      init(_osUtil.open(appEntry));
    }
    if (appPID < 0) {
      Debug.error("App.open failed: " + appNameGiven + " not found");
      notFound = true;
    } else {
      Debug.action("App.open " + this.toStringShort());
    }
    if (isImmediate && notFound) {
      return null;
    }
    if (waitTime > 0) {
      if (!isRunning(waitTime)) {
        return null;
      }
    }
    return this;
  }

Always execute this line.
if (isImmediate && notFound) {
      return null;
}
