Hi,
Are you running WIN 10, as your UA states?
If so, wait for a WIN 10 user to tell you how to run IE instead of EDGE.

As this is not a Firefox Q?, I'll move it to the Tech. forum...

You can copy the "Internet Explorer.lnk" or "Microsoft Edge.lnk" file to the SendTo folder.

Customize the Send To Menu in Windows 10, 8, 7, or Vista
