I'm working with Emacs 24.4.1 and org-mode 8.2.10 on Windows 7.

I have to use hyperlinks to our network servers like \\servername\dir1\dir2 and unfortunately I can not use them in hyperlinks in Emacs org-mode, I then get the error:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "ShellExecute failed: Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden.")
w32-shell-execute("open" "\\\\servername\\dir1\\dir2")
eval((w32-shell-execute "open" file))

It seems that Emacs automatically replaces each backslash with a double backslash.

How can I change that so that it is working?

Kind regards

Martin

Salut Nicolas,

thanks a lot - indeed with the current org-lastest, the above mentioned problem seems to be solved.

However I'm still having problem with paths like that:

[[file+sys:\\servername.domain.de\dir\]]

which produce the error "No such file c:/servername.domain.de/dir/"

How can I solve that?

Kind regards

Martin

However, I don't use Windows either. The part of code responsible for URI normalization is located in `org-element-link-parser': (when (and (file-name-absolute-p path) (not (org-string-match-p "\\`[/~]/" path))) (setq path (concat "//" path))) The "c:" is added elsewhere.
