In programming, a file uniform resource identifier (URI) scheme is a specific format of URI, used to specifically identify a file on a host computer. While URIs can be used to identify anything, there is specific syntax associated with identifying files.
URI schemes registered with the IANA, both provisional and fully approved, are listed in its registry for Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) Schemes. These include well known ones like: file - File URI scheme; ftp – File Transfer Protocol; http – Hypertext Transfer Protocol; https – Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure
Enhanced audio/video files support; RTSP/MMS download support [11] Batch downloading support for downloading a set of files; Segmented file transfer: Splits large file into parts (specified in the settings of the software) and downloads simultaneously; BitTorrent support (based on Libtorrent), Magnet URI scheme support
A URI has a scheme that refers to a specification for assigning identifiers within that scheme. As such, the URI syntax is a federated and extensible naming system wherein each scheme's specification may further restrict the syntax and semantics of identifiers using that scheme. The URI generic syntax is a superset of the syntax of all URI schemes.
The minimal data URI is data:,, consisting of the scheme, no media-type, and zero-length data. Thus, within the overall URI syntax, a data URI consists of a scheme and a path, with no authority part, query string, or fragment. The optional media type, the optional base64 indicator, and the data are all parts of the URI path.
A Uniform Resource Name (URN) is a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that uses the urn scheme.URNs are globally unique persistent identifiers assigned within defined namespaces so they will be available for a long period of time, even after the resource which they identify ceases to exist or becomes unavailable.

The Internationalized Resource Identifier (IRI) is an internet protocol standard which builds on the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) protocol by greatly expanding the set of permitted characters. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It was defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) in 2005 in RFC 3987.
A persistent uniform resource locator (PURL) is a uniform resource locator (URL) (i.e., location-based uniform resource identifier or URI) that is used to redirect to the location of the requested web resource. PURLs redirect HTTP clients using HTTP status codes.
