sokrakes 1 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 I can't open a link to the app from Evernote in Windows10. x-scrivener-item:S:/kreativita.scriv?id=06F78DCC-3140-4C08-BE05-B5B396153533 From other programs it works. I've tried different ways, but nothing. Any idea, tip? Thank you Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 10,331 Posted February 9, 2022 Level 5* Share Posted February 9, 2022 Hi. Recreate the link. Maybe also give us a clue as to your device/ os/ Evernote version and where and how the link was created? Link to comment
sokrakes 1 Posted February 9, 2022 Author Share Posted February 9, 2022 OS is Windows10, Evernote 10.30.6-win-ddl-public (3202), Editor: v140.0.17554. The link is copied/created directly in scrivener. Menu "Copy document and link" Loaded link: x-scrivener-item://S:/kreativita.scriv?id=FFF7A69D-915F-4757-8767-FD6C1F6A11F8 I recently considered leaving Evernote because it was not possible to open local folders. I use that a lot and it's fine now. Now this link doesn't work. From other programs the link is working. (Word, Xmind, etc.) That's why I'm asking if there's a trick. Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 10,331 Posted February 9, 2022 Level 5* Share Posted February 9, 2022 Hi. Context helps. Try adding "File://" at the beginning of the URL (without the ""). Link to comment
sokrakes 1 Posted February 9, 2022 Author Share Posted February 9, 2022 I've tried all that, hence the question. When inserting x-scrivener-item://S:/kreativita.scriv?id=FFF7A69D-915F-4757-8767-FD6C1F6A11F8 is automatically created http://x-scrivener-item://S:/kreativita.scriv?id=FFF7A69D-915F-4757-8767-FD6C1F6A11F8 if I edit to File://x-scrivener-item://S:/kreativita.scriv?id=FFF7A69D-915F-4757-8767-FD6C1F6A11F8 it's an invalid link (in Evernote, the link box turns red) if I edit it to file:///x-scrivener-item://S:/kreativita.scriv?id=FFF7A69D-915F-4757-8767-FD6C1F6A11F8 there's a bug in windows "Windows cannot find \x-scrivener-item:\\S:\creativity.scriv. Make sure the name is entered correctly and retry the action" Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 10,331 Posted February 9, 2022 Level 5* Share Posted February 9, 2022 Hmmn. Some part of your link is not recognised by Windows - try file://"x-scrivener-item://S:/kreativita.scriv?id=FFF7A69D-915F-4757-8767-FD6C1F6A11F8" or file://"S:/kreativita.scriv?id=FFF7A69D-915F-4757-8767-FD6C1F6A11F8" or file://S:/kreativita.scriv?id=FFF7A69D-915F-4757-8767-FD6C1F6A11F8 - My local file links all start with the drive letter. The x-scrivener bit might be confusing Evernote. The punctuation could also be an issue, hence trying the link with and without quote marks. If none of those work, you could raise this with Evernote Support who - if they don't have an answer, they can ask the developers to add this in to a future version. I also don't know if this is a Legacy -vs- v10 issue. You may be able to get around it in Legacy, if you can't in v10. I'm not a Scrivener user so that's my best guess as to options - maybe an actual other user out there can give you a suggestion.... Link to comment
sokrakes 1 Posted February 9, 2022 Author Share Posted February 9, 2022 Thank you so much for your time, I'll try the support, we'll see. It's a problem between Evernote and windows, Scrivener generates a link that works elsewhere. Scivene is better to work with multiple texts, it has adapted to that. I would like to have an overview of everything from Evernote. Thanks again and have a nice day Jirka Evernote doesn't take quotes, reddened box below. 1 Link to comment
Evernote Expert agsteele 2,340 Posted February 9, 2022 Evernote Expert Share Posted February 9, 2022 If you create a shortcut on your desktop pointing to: x-scrivener-item:S:/kreativita.scriv?id=06F78DCC-3140-4C08-BE05-B5B396153533 does that open when you double click it? This doesn't look like a conventional WIndows 10 link so I suspect that it is an internal link that will be interpreted by Scrivener but not by Windows. If Windows doesn't understand the link then Evernote will not be able to Open it. A bit like putting an Evernote internal link inside another program. It just wouldn't link eg: evernote:///view/74240/s1/02a5540a-4686-43a2-8e14-2f5d9afcb588/8af91230-5957-4f67-b1c7-95667533cae Although Evernote internal links are interpreted by Windows if placed in a desktop shortcut. 1 Link to comment
sokrakes 1 Posted July 6 Author Share Posted July 6 After some time, I tried the link again, Evernote keeps automatically adding "http" and nothing above works. If I save the link as a desktop shortcut, that works. If I "drag and drop" (drag and drop) the link from the desktop to evernote, the link works from evernote. x-scrivener-item://X:/Sync/03_Scrivener/texty-poznamky.scriv?id=0FA6FB08-C89C-4555-8545-F063FD49DF75 Link to comment

Protocols that don't start with x-*, like evernote:, tel:, file: (except for directories), drafts:, etc. do work. Just submitted a ticket: #3712209a Link to comment
