𝐔𝐑𝐋 𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐂𝐔𝐓𝐒 𝐃𝐎𝐍'𝐓 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐊, open printer dialogue.
Well it appears MS keep breaking what always worked
Since building new W10 machine I have never been able to create a desktop shortcut to a web page. None of the options for this create a functional shortcut. They all open the printer dialogue not web site.
I have tried >>
- New shortcut from right click, pasted in the url.
- I have gone to page in browser, dragged shortcut to desktop.
- I checked default programs and it is set .url to open web browser.
None of the available options will create a functional shortcut that works on W10.
- I created shortcut on W7 machine and copied to the W10 machine where it opens printer not web
- I copied shortcut from W10 over to W7 machine and it works fine over there.
It appears it has NOTHING to do with the shortcut, rather a bug or some error in Win10 itself.
I have found a lot of people have this but other than them saying "try this, try that" and instructions on how to do what I already did, no one has ever posted a fix for this.
Some suggest trying "open with" but there is no such option.
Please do not reply with the same set of instructions as to how it is "SUPPOSED" to work....I know that. I want to know how to fix it when what is supposed to work DOES NOT WORK?
Is this needing some registry fix?
Thanks much...
