Based on "in a Windows8 application" in short problem description, you cannot "force" web browser (at least IE) to load files from the local file system.

Use your custom application code to load the file and pass it in the PDF.js as array -- PDFViewerApplication.open accepts Uint8Array. See https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.webbrowser.objectforscripting(v=vs.110).aspx
