Open File Explorer window from JavaScript

I want to open a File Explorer from JavaScript. I tried using window.open("FolderPath"), it works fine but along with the file explorer it also opens a new web browser tab.

Is there a way to just open the File explorer?

In general, allowing javascript to run programs is a big no-no.

well I don't have clear the question but I think that you can use a input with the type equals to file

<input type="file" id="someID" />
