• (2024-05-22) Kai Carver: This worked great for me after checking "Allow access to file URLs" as prompted when I first used it. Thank you! I mentioned it on Stack Overflow here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58607712/local-file-links-in-chrome-or-edge/78516710#78516710
• (2023-12-25) Chuck Batson: Did not work for me as of 25 Dec 2023. Linked local file was just downloaded.
• (2023-09-05) Thomas Friedrich: I added the link ms-excel:ofv|u|file:///T:/IT/test.xlsx to a wiki page. It doesn't do anything when clicked. Copying it into the address bar throws a warning and then opens Excel with the file.

• (2021-09-04) Helvetica Free: It is still trying to save a text file in a local folder. It should be pretty obvious that if you are opening a local folder, you already have it, so why the need to save it again ? It would be helpful to be able to tell the extension what to do with what kind of files, e.g. jpg... open in browser, txt... open in browser. mp3... run using ... program etc.

• (2020-06-26) Blue Dominator: For some reason, both in Chrome and MS Edge it used to open File Explorer. Now it opens a new browser tab with a list of files. How can I change it back to open File Explorer when clicking the link?
