Considering that we've decided to keep files.exe for backwards compatibility, will this duplicate definition cause issues?

Maybe, maybe not. If that might happen we could remove that in Stable/Store release,

I think we need to remove it for the stable release

Done. Btw I renamed protocol to files-dev, files-preview and files instead of files-uwp. This alone doesn't need backward compatibility?

Unless @hishitetsu sees an issue with it, I think files-uwp can be removed.

I think files-uwp should also be kept for backward compatibility. It is not a public feature, but someone may have written scripts using this URI scheme.
Also, I think files is a too generic term for a URI scheme and may be confused with file URI scheme. So I think files-app, files-app-stable, files-app-preview, files-app-dev are better.

I personally prefer files, as it's short and easy to type, but I'm not set on it.

Easy to change before we merge this.
I'll test this again later.
Also, I'm not sure we can set more than one protocol.

I've confirmed that it works fine even if the app has mutiple protocols.

I believe each build should have these aliases and URI schemes.

  • Alias
Build files.exe files-stable.exe files-preview.exe files-dev.exe
Stable o o
Preview o o
Dev o o
  • URI scheme
Build files: files-uwp: files-stable: files-preview: files-dev:
Stable o o o
Preview o o o
Dev o o o
