^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
There's your clue. You're not using the right syntax to point to the
local URL on your drive. A local file on a Windows machine should be in the
form:
<A HREF="C:\temp\index.html">Link</a>
not
<a href="file:C:\temp\index.html">Link</a>
or
<a href="file://C:\temp\index.html">Link</a>
> There is nothing I can determine about why this should fail, except that

You're not using HTTP when you use file://
