Hello,



I am currently attempting to add hyperlinks to a Word 2013 document. I select the text, right-click, and type the hyperlink in the "Address" textbox/dropdown. The issue I'm having is that the Web Page I'm connecting to has an issue with the http: in the link address and it takes about three minutes to connect. I've tried to remove the http:, but it keeps getting automatically inserted.

So, is there anyway to insert a hyperlink to a Web Page and not have the http: protocol included? For instance instead of https://www.msofficeforums.com, I'd like to put in www.msofficeforums.com.

Thank You
