Solution
Frustratingly, this isn't possible in Visual Studio 2012 or 2013.

Problem
If I click control-click a hyperlink in the text editor, it opens the URL in a new Visual Studio tab. I would rather the link open outside Visual Studio in my system's default web browser (happens to be Google Chrome). How can I arrange this? I'm talking about hyperlinks in code comments. I am using Visual Studio 2012. I found a similar question dated 2009, however the accepted answer (a macro) doesn't work in Visual Studio 2012.
