When I open a shortcut to a webpage that I created on my desktop, instead of
opening the site, it opens the printer properties page. Before today, it
opened to the webpage. Today, it is not!

Any ideas or fixes for this.

TIA
 
All Internet Shortcuts or just that one? If just one, create another one.

If all Internet Shortcuts.
