How to download .lnk file in html

I’ve a shared directory reachable by html page in this way

<div onclick="windows.open('file://mypath/mysharefolder','_blank');">Shared folder</div>

This works with internet explorer, but not with Chrome browser (error: Not allowed to load local resource).
So I’ve thought of replacing the link with a tag to allow the download of a lnk file (created manually) containing the path of the shared directory like this

<a href="mylinktofolder.lnk" download>Shared folder</a>

this tag works to download other kind of file (img,pdf,…), but not with lnk file; download in Chrome fails because doesn’t find file mylinktofolder.download.

Is it possible to download such a file?

Thanks in advance
