I don't think "d:/profiles/%s" is the problem, but just in case: what
is that directory?  Is it some place you keep your init or config
files?  Does any Emacs variable or environment variable point to
"d:/profiles"?

It sounds like the "//" file name comes from here:

This seems to tell that font-lock calls org-activate-links, which
calls org-activate-links--overlays, which somehow ends up calling
file-exists-p with the "file name" that is "//".  I don't see how this
can happen, but my guess is that this is somehow related to the Org
file being visited and displayed, so the contents of that file might
hold a part of the solution for this riddle.  Do you have a lot of
links in that Org file?  If not, could you perhaps show them?

Ihor, can you help?  How can org-activate-links--overlays end up
calling file-exists-p, and what should we look for in the Org file to
understand why it calls file-exists-p with "//"?  I'm guessing this
might be related to the htmlize-link or help-echo properties of Org
links?
