URI WinBOX

Good day! There is a problem in the absence of passing variables to winbox.

I registered the following in the registry
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\winbox]
"URL Protocol"=""
@="URL: winbox Protocol"
"BrowserFlags"=dword:00000008
"EditFlags"=dword:00000002
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\winbox\DefaultIcon]
@="\"C:\\Tools\\MikroTik\\winbox.exe\",0"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\winbox\shell]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\winbox\shell\open]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\winbox\shell\open\command]
@="\"C:\\Tools\\MikroTik\\winbox.exe\" \"%1\""

but I can’t get rid of the protocol in the address bar. How can I get around this without a third-party handler?

You can use simple CMD/BAT file that extracts the IP and port from URI and launches the winbox:

Code: Select all


FOR /F "tokens=2 delims=/" %%a in ("%~1") DO start "winbox" winbox.exe %%a

running it as: test.bat "winbox://1.2.3.4:567/aaa" it starts "winbox.exe 1.2.3.4:567".

I understand. But can you do without an intermediary?
