So first, my apologies for hijacking the original intent of this thread. I appreciate the document, I tested the procedures contained therein and all worked great.

Thanks for the help straightening me out :)

That definitely works.
But we also need a definition for TELNET as well. When you use the Connect To... open in Quick Action and select TELNET, it attempts to launch: "C:\Windows\System32\dundll32.exe" "C:\Windows\System32\url.dll",TelnetProtocolHandler %I
