Originally created by @mitranim on GitHub (Jun 15, 2021).

Description of the new feature/enhancement

As of 1.8.1521.0, Windows Terminal supports some file URLs:

file://C:/<path>
file:///C:/<path>

But support for regular FS paths seems to be lacking:

C:\<path>
C:/<path>

Being able to Ctrl-click into files and folders would be extremely convenient.

The reason I'm also asking for / support, in addition to \, is because certain CLI tools may output these partially "unixified" paths. For example, Go stacktraces have paths that look like this:

C:/<path>:<row>:<col>

(Support for row/col is a separate issue: #10428. This is about FS paths which may use both slash styles.)

I think #2671 covers this.

Should I add examples to that issue?

Feel free to do so if you want to. We know what the feature is about. Just lack a solution that handles all scenarios (cmd, powershell, WSL & possible other shells). See https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/9793#issuecomment-818736920 .
