I have checked the option
advanced->trusted->allow local links.
Yet I cannot open a saved story in HTML format on my hard drive in the browser, instead about:blank opens, nor can I browse the directory structure of the E partition with FILE:///e:/ff/ or just the root directory (dropping the ff)
The NoScript icon simply gives me the option to "allow about:blank", which is already chosen.
Disabling NoScript and restarting the browser fixes the problem, as does restarting the browser in safe mode.
This is a recent development, but I don't know if it was a browser update or a NoScript update that introduced it since I haven't opened a file on this computer in at least a month.
How do I fix it?
I have Firefox 53 (64-bit) with Windows 7 64-bit professional and NoScript 5.0.3.
I'm trying to open it by double-clicking on the file in Agent Ransack, but I also tried using the "open file" method and typing file:/// into the location bar or whatever they call it these days ("awesome bar"?). I learned the terminology with Netscape 2.02 so bear with me with old habits dying hard.
