Associate scheme (eg. cms://) to a Windows program

credentials, windows

Solution

This is covered in an MSDN article called Registering an Application to a URL Protocol

Problem

Possible Duplicates: how do I create my own URL protocol? (e.g. so://…) How do I register a custom URL protocol in Windows? Is there a way to associate a scheme, like cms:// to a Windows program? So when an user types cms://user:password@server.com, it opens the program and can automatically connect using the given credentials.
