Report

I have a requirement where on clicking a button, the shared path must be open in file explorer.

Can anybody please suggest me by what ways I will be available to achieve this action.

Thank You.

Opening a shared path in file explorer is not possible. Linking to local resources is disabled in all modern browsers due to security restrictions.

Thanks for the reply Bala, After some research on the topic even I have found that opening file explorer through modern day browser is bit difficult. Anyways, we have a changed requirement for now
