Set links to files outside the Q.wiki

Modified on Thu, 29 Sep 2022 at 03:00 PM

File links to files on the hard disk or on a network drive are no longer supported by popular browsers for security reasons.


For Microsoft Edge, there is a current instruction that enables the use again: Microsoft Edge Browser Policy Documentation | Microsoft Docs. However, whether and how long this solution works is not our responsibility.


In Q.wiki, links can be created as type "URL" with the schema "file:///X:/path/to/file.docx".


It is recommended to save templates for proof documents directly in Q.wiki. If this is not possible, e.g. because a document is permanently revised, the document can be saved in Microsoft OneDrive or other online storage and the URL can be linked in Q.wiki.
