Hi, I'm trying to make my app load faster by having the webpages loaded from the project files instead of the web. When I put "index.html" in the browser's Go To URL event, it downloads the file instead of showing it. What am I doing wrong and how can I fix this?

Well, the html file needs to be served by an online server to be displayed inside a browser.

The Browser plugin is possibly not the best solution, you might have to check for the third part plugin "HTML pack" so that you can display the content of the file in your application.

And even though, it might possibly not be displayed correctly, according to the specificities of the webpage. So in the end you might be forced to load from a web server anyway.
