I use below code to open local link but it doesn't work. Open Firefox. Enter about:support to the address bar. Click Open Directory for Profile Directory. Create or open user.js and add the following lines: user_pref("capability.policy.policynames", "localfilelinks"); user_pref("capability.policy.localfilelinks.sites", "file:///PUT SERVER NAME HERE";); user_pref("capability.policy.localfilelinks.checkloaduri.enabled", "allAccess"); Restart Firefox

Hello, any luck if you change the

user_pref("capability.policy.localfilelinks.sites", "file:///PUT SERVER NAME HERE";);

with the next :

user_pref("capability.policy.localfilelinks.sites", "file://///idserver");

thank you
