    Beats me!

    Create your own entry then and see if it works...

    I figured out how to restore the old Open With context menu for saved URL files/internet shortcuts (see picture) with the registry code below. It should work for both internet shortcut URL files and older IE.AssocFile.URL files too.

    Question...how do you get the default browser (in this case, Edge) to show up as "Microsoft Edge" rather than "Internet Browser" ?

    Code:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    
    ; Add Open With menu for URL files
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.url]
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.url\OpenWithList]
    "MRUList"="ab"
    "a"="msedge.exe"
    "b"="iexplore.exe"
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.url\OpenWithProgids]
    "InternetShortcut"=hex(0):
    "IE.AssocFile.URL"=hex(0):
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.url\UserChoice]
    "ProgId"="IE.AssocFile.URL"
    "Hash"="ZXz1fRWovZQ="
