Make a shortcut open in IE when FF is default


Recommended Posts

I visit a particular web site that refuses to open in Firefox. Is there a way to create a desktop shortcut that will open in IE even though Firefox is my default browser?

What i do in situations like this is

My Computer (any windows) /Tools / Folder Options

Go to list the fily types then find

.LNK

do not change this

but add this

:: IE :: (Name/Label)

and you can give it a some launch options such "c:\blah blah\ie.exe" www.neowin.net

this way you right click the file and the second sontext option is the command

i do that for winrar *.rar

so i right click and hit extract and goes to D:\Temp

works like a charm
