Hi @Alberto 

 

Check a final link that is opened. There would be prefix with server/Windchill/...

 

Try to use  "file://" in the beginning of the URL

 

Generally I had trouble to use OOTB URL attribute.

The OOTB behavior couldn't meet customer needs and could be difficult to use URL attribute to point an external storage that way.

 

I would use custom DataUtility which builds correct URL link for a user.

      The only one limitation is that I need to use Internet Explorer (as mentioned in the CS134794). This is no good but I don't find another solution.
