    Hi and welcome to SevenForums,
    As far as I know all you need to do is make ie your default browser,
    Any hyperlink will open in it automatically

    But you really do not say where this hyperlink is located you want to use the right click method,
    If ie is your default browser single click or double clicking will do the same thing as you wish,
    Cheers.

    Hi and thanks,
    See if your settings are correct,
    You can use Alt+TO if ie is open or Gear symbol and Internet options,

    If using a mouse you can also use the mouse wheel click = Center clicking on the hyperlinks which is the most reliable method

    Thank you very much for helping me!

    this works fine if the hyperlink is clickable.

    if i´m e.g. want open a URL what is not clickable i have to highlighten it and then copy URL and then insert in IE adress bar.

    That´s a bit complicated.

    Is there a way with a .bat file..... to do this in IE right click menu?

    Like translate with bing or search with Google.

    Thanks

    Why can you not highlight unclickable url then right click and use the search with google option, always works for me.

    this works fine if the hyperlink is clickable.
    If a URL on a Web page is not showing as clickable it usually means an error in creating the page, or at least it has been when I do a page. Could be the URL is not colored or underlined when creating a clickable link which denotes it is clickable. Selecting and Copying then Pasting the URL in the Address box is the only solution. Or in some cases Selecting the URL, right-clicking and choosing Open in new tab or Open in new window will work, just verified it on mine.
