    You can use this:

    response = MsgBox("Would you like to open Internet Explorer?", vbYesNo)

If response = vbYes Then
    WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Run("iexplore")
End If

    Give a shoot for this code :

    Option Explicit
Dim Title,Answer,ws,Site
Site = "https://stackoverflow.com/"
Title = "Open iexplore.exe"
Answer = MsgBox("Did you want to open iexplore.exe ?",VbQuestion+VbYesNo,Title)
If Answer = vbYes Then
    set ws = CreateObject("wscript.shell")
    ws.run("iexplore.exe" &" "& Site)
End If
Wscript.Quit()

  • how to prevent cached response from MSXML2.XMLHTTP, vbscript

    I'm writing a wscript with vbscript in Windows 7. The script needs to grab a file from an open ftp server, so I must use MSXML2.XMLHTTP object

    The file I am grabbing is being cached in a sub folder of C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5

    The file that is cached has no "expires" value, and trying to set a value using setRequestHeader method doesn't seem to have any effect.

    I will self-answer this in case anyone else needs this solution
