Hi Alicja,
Just as Gert mentioned, you can try installing the Windows Client by adding and removing components in Business Central On-Premise installation.
Or you can simply uninstall Business Central do a demo installation and seperately add Windows Client through add remove components.
Kindly let us know if you need more help.
Olister, This is BC on Prem, I do have Client installed
thanks
Gert, thank you I will try that!
Hi,
As far I can understand, this hyperlink was used to call the NAV Windows Client.
But since your machine does not have NAV Windows Client Installed, its giving you this error.
Let us know if you need more help.
Hi
Some technical background:
the dynamicsnav:// protocal handler is just like the http:// and https:// ones. It means that if you (in windows) try to run "dynamicsnav://...", windows knows that it should open NAV with those parameters. Just like it would run your default browser if you try to run "http://..." or "https://..."
Windows needs to "learn" this from the registry where the protocol handlers are defined.
What happen is probably that this registry setup got corrupted/removed somehow - or you did not install the windows client (RTC client) properly (or maybe you are trying to use an old C/SIDE (development client) on a modern BC15??? BC15 neither supports C/SIDE nor windows client - only visual studio code and webclient).
To fix it i would suggest that you simply run the installer and deinstall your windows client and reinstall it (won't work if it is BC15 off cause :-) ).
If you are more technical minded, you can see this blog post where i play around with the protocol handler, even writing a script so it might work when you use a ClickOnce Windows client installation (in ClickOnce the dynamicsnav:// protocal handler is not supported):

Note: Only mess with the windows registry after taking a full backup. Messing with it is at your own risk, so don't complain if you break anything :-)
