Description
For example, visit the following URL:
https://web.archive.org/web/20260808232719/https://mpv.io/manual/stable/#files-on-windows:~:text=%25APPDATA%25%2Fmpv%2Fmpv%2Econf
Unless JavaScript is disabled, the webpage will intentionally redirect itself to the live version of the page on mpv.io, breaking the ability to view this as a point-in-time snapshot
Please don't prevent your own site from working on web.archive.org
