I'm about ready to pull my hair out on this one. Since we have migrated to O365, links sent through email(UNC path to folder or file) will no longer open in File Explorer when trying to open from within Edge. They actually won't even try to open at all(just does nothing). If I add the setting for "IntranetFileLinksEnabled" and try to open the link, I get the following

I have dug and researched on this and cannot find any resolution.

Anybody have any suggestions????

Microsoft Edge | Other | Windows 10

    This has started happened to my computers on 4/18/2024 as well. I've been trying everything, but all UNC paths are opening in Edge now when they always opened in File Explorer. Happens in Windows 11 and 10 and 7. I uninstalled Edge from a Win 7 machine and the behavior stopped, confirming they changed something in Edge.
