There seems to be a special character in the path. Probably a paste+copy problem. The file https:\learnosm.org\files\sample.osm
is opened without problems.

[GerdP]

Ah, no, now I get it. You tried to open the url and that really fails. I'll have a look at it.

[GerdP]

Not sure if the url is correct. This works with Ctrl+L "Download Location": ​https://learnosm.org/files/sample.osm
But with your url Firefox also downloads the file.

[GerdP]

OK, sorry, you tried to open the correct URL with File->Open and that tries to process the given name as a local file which fails. As said before "Open Location" is the right way to open a url. Do you agree?
