I'm using Windows 10, and my default browser is Google Chrome.

I want to open a local HTML file in the user's default browser and directly jump to an anchor within this file.

However, if I use:

open-cli file://D:/test.html#anchor

it just opens file://D:/test.html in Google Chrome:

If I explicitly specify the browser, it works without problems:

open-cli file://D:/test.html#anchor -- "chrome"

Side note: 'google chrome', as described in the readme, doesn't work for me. It has to be just 'chrome'.

I thought it might be related to the -- after the URL, so I tried this as a workaround:

open-cli file://D:/test.html#anchor -- ""

This opens the default browser, but it also removes the anchor.

The same behaviour if I wrap the URL in quotes:

open-cli "file://D:/test.html#anchor"
