restrict input type file to a specific location

I am doing html pages with forms, one of them got an input type="file"

The question is, is it possible to restrict the location of browsing for a file?

What I mean is when a user choose a file, he is only allowed to choose files from this location C:\reports

Here is my code if needed:

<form method="post" action="./../asp/upload_memo.asp">
<input required="required" name="dname" type="file" accept=".doc,.docx"  />
<input type="submit" value="upload" />
</form>

Tried searching for an answer but couldn't find.

Thanks in advance!

I doubt it. You had to be aware of the clients filesystem and privacy policy actively prevents it.
