"Download with Knossos" (fso://) link on FSNebula site isn't working

While Knossos was running, I tried installing Awakenings using the "Download with Knossos" link from this page : https://fsnebula.org/mod/awakenings

Nothing happens. I don't see "Awakenings" in Knossos's Home tab.

I'm pretty sure the "fso://" links were working for me in the past.

How can I verify that I have "fso://" Support enabled?

Using Knossos 0.14.3.on Windows 10.

My browser is Chrome Version 95.0.4638.69 (Official Build) (64-bit).

Open regedit.exe, go to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and check if it has a fso subfolder. If it's there, fso:// links should work. However, something seems to have changed and the installer doesn't create the keys correctly. This picture demonstrates the issue quite clearly:

You can manually fix this by editing the (Default) key so it matches the Default key (Windows ignores the latter).
I would probably have to update the installer to fix this issue. I'm not sure whether I have to change the script or if updating NSIS itself is enough... either way, this won't be an issue for NuKnossos since it doesn't use NSIS in the first place.

Hello, I ended up here following the discussion posted here: https://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=97879.0
Just wanted to say that I installed Knossos.NET today and for me fso:// links do not work, just like for the author of the linked thread.
