This is not a good question - we cannot work out from that little what you are trying to do.
Remember that we can't see your screen, access your HDD, or read your mind - we only get exactly what you tell us to work from.
And if you don't want to open a folder, then don't - all we can do based on that little info is say "you have my permission not to open the folder"...

Any reason that you changed the title of the question rather than starting a new one? No the Solution is out of alignment with the question.

This article will have more information about logical versus virtual file paths in Asp.Net: MapPath - DotNetPerls[^]

UPDATE: Due to the title of the question being changed, the above response is now incorrect. Below is a revised response:

Web applications work under a reduced set of permissions to stop security breaches of the hosting service above the level of the web application itself. So disable root folder in windows using ASP.NET C# would not be possible as this is the responsibility of the hosting service, IIS in this case.
