Brave won’t load the following page:
file:///mnt/terra/church/ServiceResources/Calendars/20252026.htm
It returns:
It may have been moved, edited, or deleted.
ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
This has worked on every browser, on every operating system I have.
I am a brand new Brave user, so what am I missing?
Thanks

Try Control key + "O" key … should produce a navigation window?
What has this got to do with anything? This page is a calendar I use as my homepage. Why won’t Brave display this like every other web browser I have installed on my Linux machine. Is this a problem with Brave. If it is, say so and I’ll stop wasting my time.
@Flyboy1965 what Linux distro are you using? Are you just entering that file path into the address bar and hitting enter or are you setting it to display as your homepage in Settings?
NAME=“Linux Mint”
VERSION=“22.3 (Zena)”
ID=linuxmint
ID_LIKE=“ubuntu debian”
PRETTY_NAME=“Linux Mint 22.3”
VERSION_ID=“22.3”
I set file location as my home page. It doesn’t load.
I set the file location in the address bar and it doesn’t load.
This is the path I put in the search bar: file:///mnt/terra/church/ServiceResources/Calendars/20252026.htm
Brave changes it to: /mnt/terra/church/ServiceResources/Calendars/20252026.htm
Like I said, it works in Fire Fox, Chrome, Tor and every other browser except Brave.
I also noted in your forum that this is not the first time this has bee reported.
If it doesn’t work, and is not going to work any time soon, just say so and I’ll stop wasting my time.
Step 1. In a Brave Browser New Window, → NAVIGATE ← to the .htm file and open the file.
Step 2. Bookmark that.
Step 3. In a Brave Browser New Window, go to: ‘brave://settings/getStarted’
Step 4. Scroll down to 'On startup" and select ‘Open a specific page or set of pages’
Step 5. Select ‘Add a new page’ and enter the path discovered in Step 1
Step 6. Scroll down further in the ‘brave://settings/getStarted’ page to ‘New Tab Page’ > ‘New tab page shows’
Step 7. Select ‘Homepage’
Step 8. In a Brave Browser New Window, go to: ‘brave://settings/appearance’
Step 9. Enable the ‘Show home button’
Step 10. In the field (“Enter custom web address”) where you can enter a path, enter the path discovered in Step 1.
Step 11. Exit / Quit everything. Start up Brave Browser. Click the Home button.
The purpose of the exercise, is to do what you can, in order to bring the .htm file path to the attention of the browser.
