## What did you do?

- I copied a database URL from the "copy URL" dropdown of the edit menu on the main screen

## What did you expect to happen?

- I expected my URL to be copied to my clipboard, and then be able to use it to connect to my database using `psql` in terminal

## What actually happened?

- My URI has my password with an `@` in it, and when I copied it from postico, it copied as `%40`, causing my login to fail.

## What software versions are you using?

Postico version: 1.2.3

macOS version: 10.12.6
