    file:///C:/Users/Andrew/Desktop/TestFolder

    window.location='file:///C:/Users/Andrew/Desktop/TestFolder'

    or

    window.open('file:///C:/Users/Andrew/Desktop/TestFolder')

    you could put this code in a web ressource.

    Hi Sneha,

    Please refer the following link. It describes the valid URL to open a folder in desktop.

    blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/.../file-uris-in-windows

    For the local Windows file path

    C:\Documents and Settings\davris\FileSchemeURIs.doc

    The corresponding valid file URI in Windows is:

    file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/davris/FileSchemeURIs.doc

    not working URI is proper
