How to prevent after opening a file from html link(From downloading or right click prevent)

Question

I have an HTML code that contains a tag, a tag contains a link for my server uploaded file path whenever I click on the link that is redirecting to other tab showing file like image(should be viewable) and also giving the file to save on right mouse click. The downloading from browser I need to prevent. Any Plugin is there to prevent from the download.

<a href='http://localhost/admin/file/file.png'>File</a>

Regardless of available plugins...what about if user takes a screenshot of your image? — B001ᛦ, Jun 13 '19 at 13:10
@B001ᛦ: print key also can be disabled by using javascript, isnt it? i suggest to use **IMAGE WATER MARK** and chil — devpro, Jun 13 '19 at 13:11
_print key also can be disabled..._ Sure, but you don't need the print key at all... there are many screenshot addons instead @devpro — B001ᛦ, Jun 13 '19 at 13:12

Using **WATER MARK ON IMAGE** is a good idea something like shutterstock — devpro, Jun 13 '19 at 13:13

document.addEventListener('contextmenu', event => event.preventDefault());

Try this it will prevent right click and you can also use watermark and also you can't block print screen

Hope it helps.

$(document).ready(function(){
    document.onkeydown = function(e) {
        if (e.ctrlKey &&
            (e.keyCode === 67 ||
                e.keyCode === 86 ||
                e.keyCode === 85 ||
                e.keyCode === 117)) {
            return false;
    } else {
        return true;
    }
};
$(document).keypress("u",function(e) {
    if(e.ctrlKey)
    {
        return false;
    }
    else
    {
        return true;
    }
