What is a .MFLINK file?
A .MFLINK file is a type of desktop shortcut specifically used by the M-Files Desktop software, which is part of the M-Files electronic content management (ECM) system. This system helps organizations manage their documents and other content digitally. The .MFLINK file acts like a quick link or shortcut that points to a specific file stored within an organization's M-Files vault, which is a secure area for storing files.
When you double-click on a .MFLINK file, it will open the file it refers to directly in the M-Files Desktop application. However, to access and open the file, you must have the appropriate permissions or credentials set by your organization.
To open a .MFLINK file, you need to have the M-Files Desktop program installed on your computer. This is the only program that can open .MFLINK files because it is specifically designed to interact with the M-Files system and understand the shortcut path stored within the .MFLINK file.
