title: Launching Microsoft Edge browser from a javascript file?
body: <pre><code>var oIE = new ActiveXObject(&quot;InternetExplorer.Application&quot;);
  var URLname1 = &quot;http://www.google.com&quot;;
  var URLname2 = &quot;http://www.bing.com&quot;;
  var navOpenInBackgroundTab = 0x1000;
  oIE.Visible = true;
  oIE.Navigate2(URLname1);
  oIE.Navigate2(URLname2, navOpenInBackgroundTab);
  </code></pre>
  <p>Above is a bit of code in my javascript <em>file</em> (launch.js) that launches Internet Explorer with a specific webpage and then opens a new tab in the same browser window using a 2nd URL.</p>
  <p>How do you launch the <code>Microsoft Edge</code> browser instead of <code>IE</code> in Windows 10 using <code>ActiveXObject()</code> or another similar method?
  I cannot find the <code>InternetExplorer.Application</code> equivalent for Microsoft Edge.</p>
