Default Moved spreadsheet changed link path

I have a spreadsheet that has 20 links that are to other worksheets within a
directory. The main file is on a network drive that is known as P:\ in our
environment. My client has linked these 20 other worksheets using P:\Finance
within the main file.

To troubleshoot a separate issue, I have copied the file locally to my c:\
drive. Now all 20 links are referencing the path c:\Finance. The folder path
is the same as the network drive, however instead of P:\ it changed to C:\.

Any idea of why? The hyperlink base in the properties of the file is empty.
Any suggestions?

If you copy and paste link then it will happen like that.

if you use mouse and click then the reference will be updated auotmatically.
