I don't believe that "Documents" is a common URL scheme.

It sounds more like the name of a directory; something that you would use in connection with the file scheme.


If the OP was trying to use a file:// URL to fill in a hyperlink field on a Web forum, I could see the site rejecting a URL that might only have meaning on the OP's computer, not on other people's computers. Why the OP would get the error (repeatedly, at that) if not actively trying to use a file:// URL is less clear.
