  注册 URL 信息；但这个 KB 可能有些过时，注册之后打开新类型的 URL，仍然会询问使用何种应用。之后可以在 Edit -> Preferences 里面 Application Tab 看到并修改默认操作。

  It is also possible to register a protocol by creating a .reg file such as the following, and placing this in the file:
  REGEDIT4
  
  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\foo]
  @="URL:foo Protocol"
  "URL Protocol"=""
  
  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\foo\shell]
  
  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\fo

  • Windows

     

    On Windows, registration is done by the OS. To change the OS's settings, create a .reg file, and place this in the file: 

     

    REGEDIT4  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\foo] @="URL:foo Protocol" "URL Protocol"=""  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\foo\shell]  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\foo\shell\open]  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\foo\shell\open\command] @="\"C:\\Program Files\\Application\\program.exe\" \"%1\""  

     

    Replacing foo with the protocol you're specifying and C:\\Program Files\\Application\\program.exe with the program you want to run. Note that backslashes must be doubled and the additional slashes and quotes before the path must not be removed. Save the file, then double-click it to insert into the Windows registry. 

    See Registering an Application to a URL Protocol for additional information. 

     
    [edit]

    Linux and Mac

     
    • Type about:config into the address bar and press Enter. 
    • Right-click -> New -> Boolean -> Name: network.protocol-handler.external.foo -> Value -> true (Replacing foo with the protocol you're specifying) 
    • Right-click -> New -> String -> Name: network.protocol-handler.app.foo -> Value -> /path/to/app (Replacing foo with the protocol you're specifying and /path/to/app with the path to the application you want to run. 
    • Ensure network.protocol-handler.expose-all is set to true.
