BTW, addiong a "hosts.exe" key to the registry makes editing easy:

That edits the Hosts file if you add this app paths key:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\hosts.exe

The Internet Archive Wayback Machine (<https://archive.org/web/web.php>)
says that <https://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm> was redirecting
to <http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm> since mid-2011.

Updated " September-10-2020" FWIW.

It redirects to https://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm, so why
not use that?
