Hello,

I have Folder Name and Folder Path stored in Database, and I want to explore files if I click on a link.

FolderPath contains:
file:///D:/Projects/ASP.net/MVC/FolderProject/DataFiles//admin/

if I paste this link in Browser and press enter it works, but if I use to click from my View if doesn't.

Please help.

What I have tried:

HTML

<a href="@Model.FolderPath" class="fa fa-folder" target="_blank">
                @Html.DisplayFor(model => model.FolderName)
 </a>
