If I'm reading the disclosure correctly, the issue is:

- Windows Notepad is more than just a plain text editor now.
- In particular, it has a markdown preview feature, including clickable links.
- But, it doesn't have full web browser security processes for what to do if you click on a link with a protocol that triggers a local application. It gets treated as if the user was directly running that application.

So, don't open strange files & then click links. (And update Windows regularly.)
