Link to File Explorer
The latest version of MS Edge broke my links to file explorer. I used to be able to have a link open a network location via file explorer. With the updated Edge it no longer work. It doesn't work in Chrome either. Current settings:
Link to: "File"
File name: ///server/folder/
Link to: "File"
File name: ///server/folder/
Re: Link to File Explorer
A link to a local file should include the 'file://' prefix

Re: Link to File Explorer
I tried
"file//server/share/" in the filename under link but it goes to page "about:blank"
"file//server/share/" in the filename under link but it goes to page "about:blank"
Re: Link to File Explorer
I think it should be:
file://server/share/
Note that this is unrelated to the software.

Re: Link to File Explorer
Is there anything in the program that can insert a link to a file folder?
Re: Link to File Explorer
Links are standard HTML functionality, this is not specific to WWB.
Anything that will work in HTML will also work with WWB.

Re: Link to File Explorer
When I highlight a word and choose "Link" What settings should I use in the "Edit link" options to get a folder location to open in file explorer?

Re: Link to File Explorer
That works for the old Edge and IE but not updated Edge or Chrome.
Re: Link to File Explorer
Sorry, this is not something which I have control over.
This is unrelated to WYSIWYG Web Builder.

Re: Link to File Explorer
As mentioned by Pablo this is unrelated to the software but a issue(s) with the browsers. From reading it seems that this is no longer supported in the "Newest" version of Edge and Chrome. I came across the following url that may help you (sorry I can't help with any solutions there) https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/ ... m-p/425906
There is also a browser "Extension" (unrelated to WB extensions) see the following
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/deta ... ackld?hl=e As mentioned there is no support on either of the links as only provide for information only!
