I interpret your desire to make on-the-fly instructions for users.

Contents of MessWithYourFolder:

blah-blah <br/>
Navigate to <$text text={{{ [[C:\]addsuffix{!!title}] }}} /> <br/>
blah2-blah2 <br/>

The <br/> 's are necessary so they don't run together.
The text widget causes the triple brackets to return as text, not a link.
The triple brackets append the title to the directory name. The !!title 
contains the name of the title of the tiddler passed at invocation.

Invoke like:

{{Bob's Folder||MessWithYourFolder}}

Note that the template goes AFTER the name of the target tiddler, and that 
they are separated by a double pipe || .
