Access to local UNC file in Chrome / etc

Wed, 15 Apr 2020 13:31:34 +0000

Dear all,

For a customer we want to have a link in consult that opens file explorer on the UNC. With a file:// in the href of a link this gives an error in Chrome: Not allowed to load local resource:
This is an example of what I used:
Test
<\ a href="file://10.x.xx.1/" target="_blank">Test
Does anybody know of a way without ActiveX?

Best regards,
Rob

Issues with sidebar after chrome update

Wed, 16 Oct 2019 13:20:32 +0000

Hello,

A client reported problems with efficy since release 77 of chrome (using efficy 10SP2 but will upgrade to 11.3 very soon).

Custom protocols could be checked to always use a certain program. I beleive this is also the case with efficy? (see screen below, it will be clearer)

The problem in this case is when the user even clicks on "Open Efficy", nothing happens. Even a reinstall of the sidebar didn't work.
What did seem to work was to use the url to log into efficy after wich the sidebar would open correctly.

Are there other reports of chrome users experiencing problems with this change? Do we have any fixes or workarounds to offer?

Thank you,
Ken

US Date format is not applied in IE

Wed, 24 Jan 2018 11:10:21 +0000

Hello,

A client has US date format "MM/DD/YYYY" set to be used in Efficy. it's working perftectly on Firefox and Chrome (if user add timestamp to memo the dates is formatted well), bu on IE it's showing DD/MM/YYYY. The regional settings on the user's PC is european format (DD/MM/YYYY), so i believe that IE is reading the regional settings on PC and apply in Efficy, it doesn't consider the configuration set in admin console, is that correct? and is there a way to make IE apply the formatting set in admin console and not use the regional settings?

Thank you in advance for help and advises.

Best Regards.
