Keep in mind that my system is Windows 7, not 10, but IE allows you to use its own controls to make it the default. Do the following with IE open and in focus: Alt-t for tools O for options Control-tab several times to "Programs." Here you can set IE as your default. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of jimrawls Sent: Tuesday, March 07, 2017 12:50 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] changing default browsers in W10 George, I did you said to do, and I hit the space bar on Microsoft and kept tabbing and I saw no internet explorer button to hit the space bar on.

You are in a horizontal list of 9 items, use your right and left arrow keys to move across the items. Right arrow to System, press enter, down arrow to default apps and press enter. 3. Tab across this window, look for the internet browser which by default is Microsoft edge. 4. Press the spacebar on the edge, tab to IE, press the spacebar, this will set IE as your default browser.
