I have an Excel spreadsheet with hyperlinks to folders. All other numbers work fine but if I use 11282 as a folder name the link attempts to open a firefox tab. Does not perform the same if I set IE as my default broswer. Following is page it is trying to open file:///J:/Projects/2017/11282FirefoxHTML/Shell/Open/Command If I add a -1 or a ' to the folder name it works fine. Any info appreciated

Congrats, you found the Easter Egg! No, that’s a joke. ;)

This is odd behavior. Could you have a look at this similar question to see if the suggestion helps? It suggests to switch default browser settings to IE and back to Firefox to reset some defaults. Note that the reporter claimed anti-virus software could have caused it, so please feed back if this helped and may apply to your setup.
