Description

On windows I am in a git bash shell, within vim, using ALE.

I am receiving this error "url is not a file"

** edit ** sorry githubs make an issue from this line did not actually make an issue from that line.

Research direction

Reproduce the reported setup: Windows Git Bash, Vim, and ALE, then inspect crates/rust-analyzer/src/lsp/from_proto.rs around line 16. Trace how the reported "url is not a file" error is reached and identify the expected behavior for this environment. Done means the error is resolved in the stated setup, with a regression test if the project provides a suitable location.
