    thank you for this tip.

    I have the same problem but I do not have a hard drive C only I:

    can someone help me figure out a way to upgrade my firmware?
    I know there is no point in reinventing the wheel, but reinventing myself is a worthy goal to be sure.

They really should at least update their application to use the %ProgramFiles%\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe instead.

    If others run into this problem the simple workaround is to copy the iexplore.exe into "c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\" which even if it's the only file there will get things to work.
    CW just needs to modify their software to launch the default browser.

    Until then, you're going to have to install it exactly where CW says to install it otherwise you're not going to be able to connect throught the CW launcher.

    I realize it is not used anymore but it still exist, the Autoexec.bat.

    Has anyone tried adding the path command to widen the programs search.

    path = d:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe

    or what ever drive it is located in.

    If it's hardcoded the way posted above, that won't work.

    You might need to check to insure that IE is your default browser. If it is not Designer will give you the "browser error". i had this going on with mine and once i went into IE options and set IE and my default browser.. NO problems since....
