Hi guys,
that should be a silly question, but I did some search and yet not able to do this:

https://webmsx.org/?ROM=c:\folder\file.ROM

If the parameter is a url it works perfectly. Any idea? Maybe running WebMSX locally?

I already tried this, it doesn't work for me.

We already had this discussion. It's sadly not possible due to security limitation of JavaScript.
I wanted to add WebMSX to the emulator list supported by the MSXgl library but we didn't found other solution than using a online storage to launch a fresh built ROM file.
