Can not hyperlink to file in computer

Hi, simp
As Phil_Seamark just cited, it would work if we do exactly as the document said. Though this isn't that smart.
1. File link just works in Power BI Service.
2. If click or right click doesn't work. we can right click and copy the "link address" (in chrome). Then paste in the browser. It works. If the file can't be opened by the browser, it would be downloaded as a file.
3. It just works in local meachine.
Hope this helps.
Best regards.
