Has anyone tested the file:// protocol on Windows 10? Maybe MS fixed it?

I've tested it

1/ Realm works does not allow it
2/ from a python shell on a win10 laptop, I can do it but the #page=xxx is removed as pointed by davidp

Well, I could live with that - easily :-)

As long as I could have a link to my spreadsheets and my documents.

Realm Works® Version 1.0.1035.195

URI schemes other than HTTP and HTTPS are now supported within embedded hyperlinks in text snippets.

Yeahh !

Note : still cannot link to a specific page (and that may not be RW's fault) but at least you can link any local document.

This works very well!

Thank you for letting me link to spreadsheets and documents by using file:///c:/xxxxxxxxx

I really appreciate it.
