    If you set Microsoft Edge as the default browser on your system, your macro should automatically use the Edge browser when opening the default browser.

    Here is how you can set Microsoft Edge as the default browser:

    1. Open the Settings in your Windows operating system. You can do this through the Start menu or by pressing the "Windows key + I" keyboard shortcut.
    2. Go to "Apps" or "Apps & Features".
    3. On the left side, click on "Default apps".
    4. Scroll down and look for the "Web browser" section. Click on the currently selected browser (usually Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer, or another installed browser).
    5. Select "Microsoft Edge" from the list of available browsers.

    Once you have set Microsoft Edge as the default browser, your macro should automatically use the Edge browser when opening the default browser.

    Please note that these instructions may vary slightly depending on the version of your Windows operating system. If this does not solve your problem, add additional information such as Excel version, operating system, file storage medium, file extension, etc. to get a more accurate and quick solution. The file (or VBA code) itself (without sensitive data) would be of additional benefit. As shown in the photo, you cannot tell whether it is due to VBA code or the wrong standard Internet explorer.
