| IE7 64-BIT Default
Is there anyway to make IE7 64BIT the default browser? Thanks! |

Control Panel, Default Programs. You can only select "Internet Explorer" as the default browser, which defaults to the 32-bit version. In the start-menu there is a link for Internet Explorer, and Internet Explorer (64 Bit). I'm only trying to figure out how to make the 64bit one default so that when I open links, or listed in the top of the start-menu it uses 64bit. |

choose 'associate a file type or protocol. Scroll to the bottom. highlight the desired protocol to use, and click the 'change program' button. You should see both browsers. |

Nope, down in Protocols, selecting HTTP, select 'Change Progam" only one Internet Explorer is there. This app will run everything in 64 bit that you start with it. Dave's Quick Search Taskbar Toolbar Deskbar |

Path of ie32: C:\Program files(x86)\Internet Explorer Path of ie64: C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer Just rename "internet explorer" folder in "Program files(x86)" and copy there the same one from "Program Files". If threre would be errors with some files it is possible to replace them too, but it seems for me the difference between two versions of ie is only in 3 exe files Open web page and look to the Task manager to ensure On my system works perfectly |

the icon that you click for opening the program, right click on it, properties, shortcut tab, Target: , instead of "Program Files (x86)" needs to be "Program Files" |
