    Seemingly the Desktop version is defunct "A Windows version, now discontinued, was available from 2007 to 2012" so Xara (sensibly) does not support it.

    Open your Preview in Edge (BIN IE11!) and copy and paste the address into your Safari browser.

    I've uninstalled IE 11 and downloaded and installed Edge - quite a difference.
    But when I preview in WDP17 the Edge icon is greyed out and says "edge not installed" - how do I correct this?
    Many thanks

    PS: copying and pasting from all other browsers all good.

    I have never checked how Xara detects the installed browsers.

    If it were me, I would reboot my PC and additionally Run the application as administrator the once.

    If that failing, raise a MagiXara ticket.
