If you are typing the entire path manually you must change all the slashes into forward slashes.

Make it easy for yourself and cllick the Browse button then type into the filename box at the bottom of the open file dialog:

\\servername\share

then browse to the file to be opened.

Hi!

Is it possible using Windows UNC paths (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_(computing)#Uniform_Naming_Convention <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_%28computing%29#Uniform_Naming_Convention>) in QGIS?

For me it seems that you can open project files from UNC drives, but not data sources. Not for input neither output.

I tried to found some relevant discussion web pages, but really didn't found anything relevant. Maybe this is trivial, please point me to right place. Thank you

Note: mapping network drive to letter is not solution. Asking for a friend, not have rights to map network drive to letter (like T:\). Only UNC's like \\server\directory

Rgs,
