How make internet shortcut open in IE instead of Chrome default?
I have a website that only works in IE and not my Chrome default.
Since I have both browsers how do I force the default for this website to open in IE?

Hi robls99,
One solution might be to do the following . . .
Click Start.
Click Programs.
Right-click the website icon [IE in your case]
Click Send to.
Click Desktop [create shortcut].
Right-click the shortcut on the desktop.
Click Properties.
On the Shortcut tab click the Target field.
Move the cursor to the end of the text.
Press the spacebar to create a space.
Type the URL of the website you want to open with IE.
Click Apply.
Click the General tab.
Name the shortcut.
Click Apply.
Click OK.
I hope this helps

Paul,
BEAUTIFUL!!
The only problem is when I click Start > Programs (in Win7) I found no "Internet Explorer" which I wanted to convert to.
So I just took my existing IE shortcut on the desktop and followed the balance of your instruction to "Send To" etc and it worked!.
Thanks a heap, you did great.
Have a super nice weekend,
Rob
