Step 1: Clear Your Browser Cache and Cookies

• Open your web browser.
• Press Ctrl + Shift + Delete (Windows) or Command + Shift + Delete (Mac) to open the clearing history menu.
• Select 'Cache' and 'Cookies' or similar options.
• Click 'Clear' or 'Delete' to remove these items.
• Close and reopen your browser.

Step 2: Check Browser Compatibility

• Ensure you are using a compatible browser like Chrome, Firefox, Edge, or Internet Explorer (for older SharePoint versions).
• Make sure your browser is up to date. Outdated browsers might not support the latest SharePoint features.

Step 3: Disable Browser Extensions

• Browser extensions can sometimes interfere with SharePoint functionality. Temporarily disable browser extensions and try again.

Step 4: Use a Different Browser

• Try opening the SharePoint link in a different browser. If it works in another browser, the issue might be with your default browser.

Step 5: Check for Browser Security Settings

• In your browser settings, ensure security settings are not too restrictive.
• Check for any blocked websites or pop-up settings that could affect SharePoint links.

Step 6: Verify Internet Connection

• Ensure you have a stable internet connection. Sometimes, slow or intermittent internet can lead to SharePoint link issues.

Step 7: Restart Your Computer

• Sometimes, a simple computer restart can resolve browser-related issues.

Step 8: Contact Your IT Department

• If the issue persists, it may be related to SharePoint permissions or network configurations. Contact your IT department for further assistance.
