Hyperlinks being truncated

Post by rikkitic »

I like Slimjet but I keep running into new problems with it. I upgraded to Windows 10 and had issues when I reinstalled Slimjet. I solved those and thought all was okay but now something else has gone wrong. The latest problem is that when I click on a hyperlink to a forum from an external program, like my email client, the last part of the link does not get passed to Slimjet. It goes to the right web page and page number in the forum, but the message ID is missing so slimjet opens the first message on the page, instead of the correct message. If I change the default browser to Edge, the link works correctly. If I change it back to Slimjet, I have the same problem again. I just uninstalled Slimjet, deleted everything under appdata and elsewhere, downloaded the latest version, rebooted and did a clean install, but it hasn't made any difference. Does anyone know what might be causing this?

I also posted about this on the Chrome support site. I received the following reply:

Hi Rikkitic,

Thanks for the report! URLs/weblinks cutting off at the hash/pound sign is a currently known problem for Chrome on Windows 10, and you can add a STAR to the following issues to be notified of updates to bug fixing.

The same problem was previously fixed for Win8, but that fix doesn't seem to work in Win10. This will be resolved by having Chrome no longer do the set_delegate_execute codepath introduced in r133333 on new installs, and having the registration removed after an OS upgrade to/past Win10.

Will Slimjet be updated to correct this issue?
