{quote}I think I can share my inputs here by contributing to XWiki.org documentation, example [HTML export page|https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/UserGuide/Features/Exports#HHTMLExport] by creating troubleshooting heading

I created a [troubleshooting section|https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/UserGuide/Features/Exports?viewer=changes&rev1=119.2&rev2=120.1&] for HTML export, furthermore I updated information about [longpath name|https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/AdminGuide/Installation/#H22Filepathtoolong22onWindowswhenunzipping] for Windows OS users. Worth to mention I still encounter issues when opening an exported XWiki page in a web browser  [^NotWorking.jpg], even after applying the registry and policy changes — this is a Windows behavior and a known OS limitation.
But once I made either refactoring on XWiki instance level or on exported with additional changes on resources path (CSS and JS) - the page can be opened in web-browser.

Anyone interested can review related forum discussions on the Microsoft portal. If you find better explanation (I couldn't), I'd appreciate if you update the documentation then.

" From my point of view, this request can be closed, since it is not a product issue. It can instead be referenced as a known OS limitation on x.org page.
