Fix Brave mailto: URI Registration

Fix Brave mailto: URI Registration

When registering URI handlers, Brave's configuration system often corrupts. Various hyperlinks may misbehave.

To fix this horrid computer state, pop open the hood and ensure that the pipes are fully connected to the right parts:

  1. Navigate to brave://settings/handlers.
  2. Set the desired platforms as the default handlers, such as Proton Mail for email mailto URI's.
