How to insert a [link] to a network FOLDER in JIRA

I use JIRA to manage project and I have created an issue in which I will put some files.

But, no chance, the files are too big for JIRA.

So I decide to include a link to the folder that contains the files.

I have tried

[file:///z:/home/files]
[file:///z:/home/files/]
[file:///z:/home/files/.]

but nothing work

I use Chrome as browser.

What I will in fact is that after clicking on this external reference, Chrome open directly the Folder using Windows File Explorer.

I don't have tried [folder:///z:/home/files] but I think that don't exist :-)

It looks like this is a known issue that Atlassian has posted a knowledge base article about.

It seems to be a security issue by browsers. There are workarounds... as found in the article.
