Hi rnewsat,
It's not currently possible to use file:// URLs in the web/desktop app, sorry.
A different thing to do would be to put a file path in a note or URL field and copy it and paste it into your file browser.
Hope this helps a bit!

Also, you can insert links to Dropbox and OneDrive folders and files in the task url field.
They will initially open in a browser but you can then edit them in their native application on the PC.
