"You could map the other directory to a drive letter, and then open it in explorer.
I don't recommend that you link to c:\, but if you need to...

LinkToFolder.bat (username and password need to be replaced with your username and password)

net use x: \\150.204.216.26\c$ password /USER:username
explorer x:\"

"You can map a random drive letter and get it:
@echo off
for /f ""tokens=2 delims= "" %%a in ('net use * \\server\share ^| find ""is now connected""') do set ""drive=%%a""
explorer %drive%"
