If you simply want to open some folder then you can try this way:

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)     
{

System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo processInfo = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo();
        processInfo.FileName = "explorer.exe";
        processInfo.Arguments = Server.MapPath("YourFolderName");
        Response.Write(processInfo.Arguments.ToString());
        System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(processInfo);
}

Reply me if it works for you.

  • This answer seems to ignore that the question is about ASP.NET. This answer will attempt to open Explorer on the *server*, which is not what the OP wants. (Hint: You *can't* do what the OP wants) – Andrew Barber Jan 25 '12 at 09:37
