Link to File (in file system)

Deon Schaffer May 23, 2024

I am looking to add a link to a task's description. The following standard works well for Http hyperlinks: 

[Link description|URL] 

However, I am looking to link to files on the file system.  I have tried various variants of file:// without success. (Including: file://///)

Thoughts?

I think I tried this many years ago, and found that it is not possible.

Not sure if this is still the case (rather likely), but there is even a KB related to this: https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/can-t-link-to-local-files-from-within-jira-216958260.html
