When using Microsoft Edge as browser for loading help content and passing URL which points to a local file (i.e. of the type *file:///C:<path_to_html_file>*) the browser is opened but the HTML is not loaded.

 * Class: MicrosoftEdgeBrowser.java
 * Method: defaultBrowserExecutable
 * params is set to */C start microsoft-edge:\{URL}*. However this command does not work for file: scheme (for reference: [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31164253/how-to-open-url-in-microsoft-edge-from-the-command-line] )
