Hi
I recently tried the early 2000s mindscape/anuman interactive release "Train Set Builder" as it was a decent budge train set builder. This worked for me in windows 10 a couple years ago, but now when i try it, the ingame toolbox panel, from which one selects track objects , does not work - the panel just gets filled with a "website cannot be reached error" The game though does not require online access, but its menus seem to be using IE - like NHL 2004 did.

Is there a workaround for older games that used IE for their ingame interfaces. If i could get it to use Firefox or Chrome that would fix it maybe?

there is a properties.inf file in the games data folder and in the file it shows this

[GUI]
File = cdefs:%FILENAME%::/index.htm
Icon = Gleisplan.ico
Run = iexplore.exe

[General]
ProgID = Train électrique 3D 3.0

does this mean if i chnce the Run=iexplore.exe to something else maybe it might work then?
