SYMPTOMS
When you use the WEB/HOME hot key on the Microsoft Office Keyboard to start the default Web browser, your browser may not start as expected.

<div class="cause_section">

CAUSE
Some Web browsers cannot be set as the default browser. The WEB/HOME hot key checks the registry setting for the default browser. The following browsers cannot be set as the default browser and therefore cannot be opened by using the WEB/HOME hot key:
 * Prodigy
 * Oracle
 * Opera
