I am trying to access files in a Huawei P10 Lite without success, I tried file:///storage/emulated/0/ and various others.

I tried also to open from the file manager an htm file, but the phone does not propose to use firefox even though it is the default browser. I can choose chrome and works, but the displayed address

content://media/external/file/263

when copied in firefox does not work. I do not know what else I can try.

Update: upon typing the addres

file:///storage

I see 3 directories: emulated sdcard0, self

if I click on any or even Up to higher level I get file not readable.

I tried also file:///storage/emulated/0/file.htm or similar without success

Still puzzled by this situation.
