Application.FollowHyperlink for local file will only open Internet Explorer

[mor10]

When trying to open a .htm file stored on my local drive using this command line: "Application.FollowHyperlink MyMapFile, , True" it will only accept it opening using Internet Explorer.

If I change the Internet Explorer folder name, I get an error telling me it can't find Internet Explorer.

Using the same command to open the very same file from a https:// web link opens up the Windows 11 default app for a .htm extension, being it Edge or Firefox.

I did run the office update to the latest Office365 yesterday and the problem has been there sine yesterday. Hmmm...

Anybody else seen this today?
