Current Status Availability to setup Links (HTTP/HTTPS/SSH). On OS level for SSH, I'm already able to define a default App. to open (e.g. Putty). The complete link will be handed over which Putty is not able to manage because of the SSH prefix.

Feature Description To be able to define about 5 different types of external link. To hand over additional parameter, as well as Address, Username & Password To add new settings to define the parameters per external link: (This is an example just for Putty to show how this parameter could be defined by the end user): c:/program files/putty/putty.exe %URL% -l %USERNAME% -pw %PASSWORD% -ssh

Additional context not now

There is no supported way to open external programs from within the browser. Maybe any of the third party desktop apps can add support for this, but i can't. I would also like to point out that this is a big security risk. Someone could share a password with you that executes malicious code when the link is clicked.
