the ai suggested this, I've no idea if it works of will break something or makes any sense since I never used the itch app:
The "itch-cave" link issue you’re encountering usually stems from the Itch.io app not properly associating the protocol handler with the correct application. Here’s how you can resolve this issue:
Windows
- Reset Default Apps:
- Go to
Settings>Apps>Default apps. - Scroll down and click on
Choose default apps by protocol. - Find
itch-cavein the list and set Itch.io as the default app.
- Go to
- Reinstall Itch.io:
- Sometimes reinstalling the Itch.io app can re-establish the correct associations.
- Uninstall the Itch.io app from
Settings>Apps. - Download the latest version from the Itch.io website and install it.
