RISC OS NetSurf no longer responding to URI files

I would have reported this on the bug tracker, but I've found it
impossible to access this, even after a change of password.

This is currently with 3.10 (Dev CI#4729) on RISC OS 5.25, RiscOS version
(24 Aug 18).

I have been using URI files so=red in Paul Vigay's NeXTBar app to launch
favourite files. I'm lazy, and this is easier than finding them from the
icon bar's Hot List. Fot the last three or so development builds this has
stopped working, and even if I save the location in a RISC OS URI file and
double-click on this it still doesn't work. Also, double-clicking on a URL
in a MPro email doesn't work.

I've just discovered that if I save a location as an ANT URL file and
double-click on this, it does work. However, this is the format NeXTBar
uses to store URLs, so I am not totally puzzled.

Does anyone know why this should happen?

Best wishes,

Peter.
