Excel hyperlinks will not work with Internet Explorer turned off.

When I had the same problem with hyperlinks not launching Firefox the following registry mods worked for me: -

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\FirefoxHTML\shell\open]
Enter value: - @="&Open"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\FirefoxHTML\shell\open\command]
Create the “command” key, then in it: -
Enter value: - @=""C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe" -osint -url "%1""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\FirefoxHTML\shell\open\ddeexec]
Create the “ddeexec” key
