I have a .htm file I need to open from a website. The website is running on its own VM (virtual machine) and the file is sitting on another VM. Both are on the same network. Now it works fine using the old school Internet Explorer but it doesn't work in Edge. I've looked on the internet and tried the different variations it suggests with the slashes but it doesn't work in Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome (but I can right click and copy the link in a new tab and it that works but of course I don't want that to be the solution.
<a href="file://///myServer/folder1/folder2/myPage.htm" target="_blank">CLICK ME</a>
The link does nothing when I can click in Edge or Chrome, not sure if this is some kind of security feature of the browsers? Any help on this one would be appreciated, thanks.
