I'm working in advertising agency, and we often need to share local links within Windows 8 and 10 network. Files are big, so you can't attach them to messages.
For communication we use slack and Skype, but the problem is that click on link like
\\SERVER\path\to\some\folder
nothing happens. Parser inside mesenger understands that it is link, higlights it, but doesn't open it.
Workflow now looks like Shift + Right click on file → copy as path → paste to Skype → copy from Skype to Windows explorer → remove "" from path → open file
when you do it 20 times a day it's frustrating.
Can you suggest more convenient way to share links with other team members?
"<file:{server link}>"
So it will look like this is the above is the path"<file:{\\SERVER\path\to\some\folder}>"
give it a test.
