174} How to write a script to launch a URL invoking the default browser?
In brief, e.g.
@echo off & setlocal enableextensions
start "" "http://www.elisanet.fi/tsalmi/info/tscmd.html"
endlocal & goto :EOF

We could also write
@echo off & setlocal enableextensions
set target_=http://www.elisanet.fi/tsalmi/info/tscmd.html
set Program=%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe
if defined ProgramW6432 set Program=%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe
"%Program%" -requestPending -osint -url "%target_%"
