'This operation is not supported for a relative URI

I have an hyperlink that throw the exception : "This operation is not supported for a relative URI"

Code:

 Process.Start(e.Uri.AbsolutePath);

I want to enforce it to open the browser even if the uri is something like : "1aabbb3"

How can I do that ?

Solution 1:[1]

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("iexplore"); should open a very specific browser to it's home page.

Solution 2:[2]

You can try using Uri.OriginalString

 Process.Start("iexplore.exe", e.Uri.OriginalString);

Edited to reflect clarification in comment.

Solution1: check IsAbsoluteUri and use OriginalString

        if (uri.IsAbsoluteUri)
            Console.WriteLine("Url:{0}", uri.AbsoluteUri);
        else
            Console.WriteLine("Url:{0}", uri.OriginalString);

Solution2: define the url protocol

        url = "http://someRelativeUrl";
        uri = new Uri(url);
        Console.WriteLine("Url:{0}", uri.AbsoluteUri);
