Describe the bug

When trying to use the "scan QR code" button to scan a QR code on my brower, after 3 sec it opens up the Windows snipping tool instead, and thus cannot scan that QR code within the 2fast application. It used to work ok two months ago when I added some QR codes in the app, unsure of what has changed since.

Steps to Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Using Windows 11
  2. Go to Scan key-QR code
  3. Click on on the button
  4. The Windows snipping tool with open

Expected behavior

Screenshots

Environment

  • [x ] Windows 11 23H2 Update (22631.3447)
  • Insider Build ({build_number})

Additional context

The issue is related to a change by Microsoft. As workaround you can reset this configuration:
Go to "Settings → Apps → Default apps → Choose default apps by link type", and make sure that MS-SCREENCLIP is set to "Screen Snipping".
In the next app version I will change the QR code scanning for Windows 11 without dependence on the snipping tool.
