relative links broken on Windows 7/10

In 0.0.9 relative links to external files open the windows explorer instead of refering to the file and opening it in an external program. Absolute links work fine.

In 0.0.8 relative links worked fine.

I also have this issue. Relative link to a file opens explorer.exe instead of the external application registered for the file type.

Thanks @Ketadoc @raphaeldore can you test whether the latest release fixes things?

Thanks @Jermolene for all your great work!

I tested TiddlyDesktop-win64-v0.0.10 on Win7 pro 64 and Win 10 with the same results:

  • Relative links to local files (pdf, odf, doc...) work and open the correct program IF the filename doesn't contain umlauts (ä, ö, ü).

  • Relative links to local files with filenames containing umlauts seam to trigger no reacton.

  • Links to local htm-files open in external browser (firefox).

  • Links to www-html-files open in new tiddlydesktop-window.

  • Relative links to local files with filenames containing umlauts seam to trigger no reacton.

Relative links to external files containing umlauts work for me, on macOS 10.12.6, I tested with both Firefox and Safari as the default browser.

  • Links to local htm-files open in external browser (firefox).
  • Links to www-html-files open in new tiddlydesktop-window.

I'm also seeing this problem, and will post here when it's fixed.

I've created a separate issue #132 for the issue with http/https links opening within TiddlyDesktop, leaving this one for exploring the umlaut issue.
