[BUG] crc console gives incorrect output on microshift preset

[rohanKanojia]

General information

I was testing some stuff on microshift cluster related to crc-org/docs#16 . However, I noticed that crc console isn't giving the correct output for microshift preset:

When I do plain crc console, it's opening up file explorer in current directory instead of browser

PS C:\Users\rokum\go\src\github.com\crc-org\docs> crc console
Opening the OpenShift Web Console in the default browser... # Opens File explorer instead

When I try to list credentials, it's showing incomplete command:

PS C:\Users\rokum\go\src\github.com\crc-org\docs> crc console --credentials
To login as a regular user, run 'oc login -u developer -p developer '.
To login as an admin, run 'oc login -u kubeadmin -p  '

Operating System

Hypervisor

Steps to reproduce
