Hi Soren thanks for your reply.

>>> The URL you list is not a valid file: URL, however -- it needs to use 
forward slashes even on Windows.

Thanks, I wasn't sure which to use here but I had tried every combination 
and it still didn't work.

>>> It does appear that the permalink generation in TiddlyRemember applied 
during the sync is incorrectly putting a backslash at the end of URLs that 
can't accept one there.

I had noticed this, but I have tested with the correct permalink and it 
still won't work. I've also tried putting the HTML directly into the card (<a 
href="file:///C:/Users/Si/Desktop/file.html">link</a> using Ctrl+Shift+X), 
but again when I click the link while viewing the card nothing happens.

I've noticed that there is an add-on 
<https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/879473266> for opening files in an 
external program. I got it to work with an HTML file, but because it looks 
for a specific extension at the end of the path, it doesn't work with 
permalinks that end in "#tiddler".

Is it possible that Anki just can't open external HTML files on Windows?
