Hello there,
When Air 2.0 was released, it was possibile to do something like this (c:\mydirectory\mysubdirectory has to be there obviously):
var file:File = new File("c:\\mydirectory\\mysubdirectory");
file.openWithDefaultApplication();
and the directory would be opened by using (for exampe) in windows the file explorer
In air 2.7 this code throws an error (that is a security error, in fact if I open a temp directory created with createTempDirectory it works)
"Illegal file path"
Now, please, tell me how can I harm the user by simply opening a directory on his hard disk!
How can I open a directory on his hard disk without getting this error?
Thanks in advance
