Insert Hyperlinks to Files

[Nick]

Hello,

Is there a way to change the default behavior of hyperlinks within a RichTextBox to allow file:/// links? After inserting a link through the UI, the control seems to automatically add the 'http://' to an address that begins with the file:/// scheme.

Hi Nick,

This is a known issue that is already logged on our feedback portal. You can track its progress, subscribe to status changes, and add your comment to it here: RichTextBox: InsertHyperlinkDialog adds automatically http:// in front of any link not containing http/https.

The above link contains possible workarounds as well.

Should you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.
