Yes I use it all the time - in fact my file mangler offers me a list of them in its address bar - but that's native windows which is not IETF RFC 3886 compliant.
Windows is not compliant, because 1808, which 3886 obsoletes, wasn't published until 1995! The %---% convention was in CP/M (Kildall may have copied it from TOPS 10 or RT/11 - or even CMS), from there it went into QDOS which begat MS/PC-DOS in 1981!
And here we are today with... what we've got and not got.
