Office Opener per Forelleh

Important: This only works with recent versions of Microsoft Office See below for more info

Modern browsers, such as Chrome, Firefox or the new Edge do not allow local contents to be linked from a site served over HTTP(S). This is a security feature, which though hinders some applications, like linking to local office files from a corporate intranet. This extension enables you to open Office files locally from a link.

This addon only works with recent versions of Microsoft Office, since the URL-scheme support was incomplete in earlier versions.

Versions confirmed to work:
- Microsoft 365 MSO (16.0.13530.20490) 64-bit
Versions confirmed not to work:
- Microsoft Office 2016 (16.0.5110.1000) 64-bit
