ActivityNotFoundException when accessing the camera using registerForActivityResult

My API 28 application throws this ActivityNotFoundException when trying to capture photos with the camera (both in the Emulator as well as with a real device) using registerForActivityResult: "No Activity found to handle Intent { act=android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE typ=image/jpg flg=0x3 clip={text/uri-list U:content://...

I call the handleIntent method in an object of this custom IntentHelper class from a fragment, triggered by a click event. The ActivityResultRegistry parameter passed in the constructor is retrieved in that fragment from the main activity.

The application does create empty files in the corresponding folder while he device camera does not open. The job worked fine before when I was using the deprecated startActivityForResult, so I assume that permissions, paths and dependencies are fine...

Remove the setType() call. And, consider replacing all of this with ActivityResultContracts.TakePicture().
