Using regedit, can you navigate to the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.url key and tell me what the association is (the default value in that key)?

Sir, Dear Sir, I hope you are well, (very) well ...!

I am (by now?) rightly concerned that you might (perhaps?) be upset in some way - or (perhaps) rightly await support (from my side) while I am not there (at least as of) yet, etc - or that you are very busy (as we all fortunately or unfortunately or both are) - or that you cannot currently place my suggestion high enough in your busy To-Do list ...!?

In any way, in/via Path Copy Copy you managed to create a GREAT piece of software (to my taste, habits, etc) and it would be a pity not to continue doing so - as to my current knowledge you are the only one in the World thinkig of this and having done something majorly important about such issue/problem...!

I sincerely hope you are doing not well but great and help us further with your talent ...!

I am not important, however here is more about me at least ...

It seems to me external links are not supported, worse, perhaps not welcome, etc? - as testing the links, they default still inside GitHub - I will have to learn the hard way- via some sort of ban? - about this - it does not seem to say so explicitly - however, nor do the links work - we'll do, wait and see later I guess (is 20201028_043452) here ...!

I hope in a sentiment of all, we love to hear from you ...!

Sincerely wishing you well, you a Great Day and a Great Life further on, etc ...!
