file protocol unsupported

Steps to reproduce
1. Create a new catalog item pointing to some file on your local computer, but use a URL instead of a Windows file address (ie. start with file:/// and use forward slashes instead of backslashes).

Actual results:
XYplorer says "Couldn't find path or file..."

Expected results:
XYplorer should open this file in the default browser.

Code: Select all

! Address Bar and Catalog now support the file:/// protocol.
I have these files executed by the Shell, so http[s]:// URLs are opened by your default browser whereas file:/// URLs are opened by the associated application.
Even better :)
