Windows 7 customized toolbar
Hello,
I have created a customized toolbar folder where I have various shortcuts to applications.
My problem is that I want most of them to open with the Chrome browser. Chrome is my default browser now, yet this is not helpful.
I have looked at some property settings, but I find nothing there.
I tried recreating the shortcut to assign it the Chrome browser, but could not.
Any suggestions, solutions?

what applications are you trying to open?
if they are not made for opening with Chrome, you probably cannot do that

footech and nobus, I'll try to keep this short. Via the Control Panel/Set your default Programs, I am able to select which browser should be my default. I'm sure there are other ways of doing this. My objective was to set Chrome as my default, because I was using IE in my testing setup.
The shortcuts I had created for my customized toolbar was using IE and I wanted for them to use Chrome. Well, it turns out the automation test tool I am using, uses the default browser set. Consequently I cannot set Chrome as my default.

Thanks nobus and footech, Ranorex does have a method to select different browsers. It was the toolbar shortcuts created that I need to keep from using the one that the automation tool is using. When I change browser on the automation tool then I will have the same problem.
Once again thanks.
Once again thanks.
