Describe the bug
Whenever I click on a Hyperlink while using QuickLook it gives me a "Sorry, navigation not allowed" popup.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Go to 'Check for updates via right click on taskbar icon in the system tray'
- Click on 'any blue Hyperlink in the .md changelog file that QL displays'
- See above answer
- See error "Sorry, navigation not allowed"
Expected behavior
I would expect QL to open my default web browser and navigate to the selected hyperlink. Which would be the official QL github page.

QuickLook Version: [4.4.0 QL-Win I honestly can't remember if it's the msi version or windows store but I'm almost positive it's the msi version because QL never auto updates and I always come to the github page to download the latest version. While I haven't installed 4.5.0 yet I can say that this has been an issue for me for multiple versions now and I can't honestly remember the last time it opened a hyperlink. So it's been a while. Sorry for the vague timeline.

UPDATE: After navigating to the above link regarding where my log files are saved I can confirm that my QL is the MSI version.
