What to do when an activex object is not defined?

I have an existing Javascript button which causes an "ActiveXObject is not defined" error when I click on it.

{
    !REQUIRESCRIPT("/soap/ajax/22.0/connection.js")
}
var newIRnAGenRequest = new sforce.SObject("Account");
newIRnAGenRequest.id = "{!Account.Id}";
newIRnAGenRequest.Request_Folder_Path__c = "{!Account.Request_Folder_Path_Hidden__c}";
newIRnAGenRequest.Req_Communication_Folder_Path__c = "{!Account.Req_Communication_Folder_Path__c}";
newIRnAGenRequest.Primary_Request_Status__c = "{!Account.Primary_Request_Status__c}";
var result = sforce.connection.update([newIRnAGenRequest]);
var myObject;
var myFile0 = "{!Account.Request_Folder_Path_Hidden__c}";
var myFile1 = "{!Account.Req_Communication_Folder_Path__c}";
if (newIRnAGenRequest.Primary_Request_Status__c == "Submitted") {
    alert("Please select a Primary Team assigned");
} else {
    location.reload(true);
    myObject = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
    if (myObject.FolderExists(myFile0)) {
        window.open(myFile0);
    } else {
        var myObject2, newfolder;
        myObject2 = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
        newfolder = myObject2.CreateFolder(myFile0);
        newfolder = myObject2.CreateFolder(myFile1);
        window.open(myFile0);
    }
}

When I tried to google it, I found that it was related to files and it is dedicated to IE only. It worked a few months ago in chrome. But now it stopped working everywhere.

My request is to provide any alternate solutions, if ActiveXObject can't be used anymore.
