Chrome VS Explorer website desktop icon! Please help!!!!? - 658 - 06-06-2014 01:14 PM

I have Google Chrome and Internet Explorer, I want to add a website as a desktop icon but it defaults to Google Chrome browser however the program on the website can only run on Internet Explorer. I also have another website as a desktop item which was made before I installed Chrome and it changed from being opened into an Internet Explorer browser to a Chrome browser. So how can I make these desktop pages open into a Internet Explorer browser?

control panel, internet options, programs tab at the top, check the box and click make default.
