Hi, Firefox Quantum is the default browser for my Windows 10 Pro (Ver 1607). I would like to have a Firefox Bookmark to launch Internet Explorer for a specific website. I have tried to edit the Bookmark Properties > Location, as follows: 

"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" https:www,example.com

However, the Properties "Save" button is greyed out. I even tried to setup an Environmental Variable for the Path-to-IE, but no luck.

Any advice? Thanks!

Glad to help. Safe Surfing.

I found it very helpful when someone says Firefox has a problem with a webpage but other browsers don't.
