Description
When previewing shortcuts where the URL is like f.e. steam://rungameid/certain_game or twitch://fuel-launch/certain_game, the url gets called and therefore the programs launch. Also the message "Navigation to webpage was canceled" pops up.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to location of your steam/twitch/... shortcuts.
  2. Click on a steam/twitch/... shortcut.
  3. Press space / Invoke QuickLook.
  4. See error.

Expected behavior
Show large icon of application/game with name and "open" button in the dialog.

Desktop:

  • OS Version: Windows 10 1909
  • QuickLook Version: 3.6.6.0 from Windows Store

Possible solution
Implement special treatment for all protocols in the url except HTTP/HTTPS/... .

Currently working on a plugin that uses the users standard programs to open the other protocols after user confirm.

This commit contains initial layout of the launcher without any further logic yet.

I currently don't have enough time to finish that plugin and it propably isn't even that useful because the default window already features an open with-button.

Since I already fixed the "bug" in my fork I'll create a pull request for that.

Bugfix for #625: The HtmlViewer opens `.url`s with unsupported protocols in internal browser.
