The PSI says “An error occurred while attempting to open the specified URL” when I click links. How can I solve this?
This error occurs because the registry key specifying your default browser is not properly set. To solve it, try setting your preferred browser as default again. If this has not resolved the problem, you can examine the registry key the PSI uses to determine your default browser. To see this, open the Registry Editor by typing “regedit” in either the Run box (WinXP) or in the “Program search field” (Vista/7), both found in the start menu. Then navigate with regedit to “HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\HTTP\shell\open\command”. This registry key configures your default browser, and the program specified here is what the PSI is having problems executing. Verify that the path points to your preferred browser, and that the browser indicated has not been removed and is still functional. These are some typical registry keys from the most used browsers known to work with the PSI as an example.
