Convert Windows/MacOS links and share them with colleagues

Question

Is there an easy solution for Windows/MacOS link conversion to share links with colleagues?

I have a windows link for e.g.:

\\networkshare\folder\subfolder

and i want to convert to:

smb://networkshare/folder/subfolder

It is very annoying to convert the link manually several times a day

With the existing applescripts I mostly miss a function or it doesn't work with all links. Is there an easier way to do this?

Answer 1

The easiest way I came across is the Linkconverter App. The app converts both ways:

smb://server/folder --> \\server\folder

\\server\folder --> smb://server/folder
