Description Setter Plugin - add hyper link to a network folder

I'm using Description Setter Plugin for adding an hyper link to a network folder. In Set build description --> Description, I've added the following:

<a href="\\server\folder1\folder2\folder3">[Release]</a>

When job is finished, I can see the link but when pressing it, nothing happens. If I copy the path to browser's url, it will open the relevant path (but via Jenkins it doesn't).

Any ideas what am I doing wrong?

** With a custom HTML page it works.

You are either using Plain Text or Safe HTML formatter.
Unfortunately the only HTML formatter than can parse the file links is the anything-goes formatter, which is very unsafe - javascripts are also allowed, and anyone can add harmful code to their user's description for example.
To use it, download the anything-goes-formatter plugin, go to

Manage Jenkins -> Configure Global Security -> Markup Formatter

change to Allows arbitrary HTML includin [sic] JavaScript (UNSAFE).
