Hello Merrriwapomwa,

In Default Programs, check to make sure that Internet Explorer is set
as the default program with all of it's associations set to it as well.
This tutorial will help show you how to if needed.

Hope this helps,

That function is available under the Default Programs applet, which
you can access either from the Start menu or via the Control Panel.

However, that error message is often misleading. Tell us what you
