    Android Word App link in document will not open PDF on mobile


    Mobile: Motorola G8 PlusOS: Android 10I have a document on OneDrive which I open on my mobile with the Word app. The document has a link which, for an experiment, contains the pathname for a PDF in the downloads folder on the mobile. The PDF just a happened to be there so it seemed a fair idea to use that one as a test. I obtained the pathname from the Google files app and copied it to paste and then pasted into the link creator dialogue.On tapping the link I get the message"Can't open. There's no web browser installed for this user profile,&nb

    Android Word App link in document will not open PDF on mobile

    Mobile: Motorola G8 Plus

    OS: Android 10

    I have a document on OneDrive which I open on my mobile with the Word app. The document has a link which, for an experiment, contains the pathname for a PDF in the downloads folder on the mobile. The PDF just a happened to be there so it seemed a fair idea to use that one as a test. I obtained the pathname from the Google files app and copied it to paste and then pasted into the link creator dialogue.

    On tapping the link I get the message

    "Can't open. There's no web browser installed for this user profile, so the page couldn't be opened"

    I have spent a fair few hours looking at this. There are similar issues mentioned online but not specifically this issue.

    I do this with my windows documents all the time without an issue and, indeed, I was planning to use this document as a single point of access to a PDF from both Android and Windows by providing two links side-by-side, one for each OS.

    ... and I couldn't find a suitable category for this question.
