Research direction
Start by locating the implementation and call sites for ofSaveURLAsync, then reproduce the reported calls on Windows with CodeBlocks. Investigate why a non-URL input crashes while an HTTP URL does not; done means the non-URL call no longer crashes and the existing URL behavior remains intact.
