You can use the below code to access the local file:
<apex:page >
<apex:form>
<a href="file:///D:\Abc\....\...">Local file 1</a>
</apex:form>
</apex:page>
But due to security reasons, it is not disabled by most of the browsers. If you try to open a local file, you will get an error in
JavaScript console.
Not allowed to load local resource:<file path>
I hope you find the above solution helpful. If it does, please mark as Best Answer to help others too.

Thankyou for the response.
I am not abel to open the local file, no action is happening with the local file.
In between, I would like to know, whether there is any way to access local files into Salesforce through Microsoft Edge by purchasing or installing any packages.
Help me solving this.

Sindhu
