Open URL in a Specific Browser

If a website does not work well in your Windows default browser, create an ActiveWords Launch Program Action that opens the URL in a specific browser.

Action Format

Use the browser executable in straight quotation marks, followed by a space and the URL.

Note: Use plain text quotation marks ("), not curly quotes.

"firefox.exe" https://www.activewords.com

Chrome Example

To open the ActiveWords home page in Google Chrome, put this in the Program to Launch field:
