So I was going to do a proof of concept, I have collected links for over fifteen years in HTML documents, for example “automobiles.htm” would have automobile links/info, “computers.htm”, these are stored on an external hard drive that moves from Linux to Windows systems…..

I opened “Xmind” and tried to add a hyperlink to one of these files on my external hard drive. I tried “absolute” and “relative” neither worked, then I could not remove it….

My expectation was that if I put “../web/automobiles.htm” when I clicked on the link it would open regardless of OS or browser. Then when I clicked on Remove, the link was not removed – this is a show stopper for my personal use since I was hoping to map my decades of collected knowledge/reference material.
