Open a Web Page using the Default Browser

You can use the following command to open a defined URL using the systems default browser via the command line:

cmd "start /max http://url.com"


Please note, that in order to use this command, you will have to config the external application as follows:



Command = C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe

Argument = /c "​start /max http://url.com"

Thanks for that solution! Wanted to add a OneNote Link in there for easy access to solutions when connecting to a server.


Tho I may have a bit of an improvement as the above threw an error for me. It's better to use the following argument instead to also handle special characters in the URL:  

/c "start "" "google.at""

Additional to that it's advised to go to Advanced Options and enable "Start Unattached" to not unnecessarily open a new tab inside Royal TS.
