Strange behaviour

Hi,

I've been noticing that in the last versions, at some point after navigating to sites, my app will open the default external browser and load urls like this one :

https://p2-ls4pxiqlj5ffi-gi46oqljthxybm ... frame.html

What could be causing this ?

Thanks

It seems to be a domain used by Google to store static content to reduce bandwidth.

Yes but how can i avoid the app to open this OUTSIDE my app ? It's opening in external Chrome instead of inside my app :lol:

That's weird...HTTPS URLs should be open in the same browser or a popup window.
Modify the Windows registry with the installer of your application to indicate that it can handle the HTTP and HTTPS protocols.

Try using the TChromium.OnProtocolExecution event and set allowOsExecution to FALSE.

I tried this , but still at some point the external browser is opened with these weird urls...

It seems this started on the recent updates.

If possible, send me the website address where this is happening to try to find a solution.

The problem seems to be random, not related to a specific url. But users reported that when navigating to Facebook, often the issue happens.

I just updated to the most recent version, and still this issue happens. Right now this link was opened outside my app, in the default browser :

Is there a way to block this kind of links to open ? It's very annoying , the users think it could be a virus or malware...
