      From a Powerapps customised form I would like users to be able to click a button that would open microsoft file explorer.
      The user would then navigate the file network and select a folder path.
      The folder path would then be stored as a link to the chosen path in a sharepoint list.

      I have tried to use Launch() but currently this only seems to open a web url.

      Hoping someone in the community might know a solution for this.

      Many thanks in advance.

      There is no way to open the file explorer to do that yet.Ā  You may be able to modify the process for attachments.Ā  Check out Shane Youngs youtube video on this atĀ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ws6xEr5N1cU&t=16sĀ  Paul Culmsee also has a good one too atĀ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQVYid1p_vA
