Has anyone found a way to just launch the browser without supplying a URL? e.g. I just want to launch browser and go to default home page.

    One way to do it is to Run application and select the browser you want. Then use Launch new browser instance but select Launch mode be 'Attach to running instance'

    Found a workaround for what I wanted to get to anyway.

     

    Specify URL as "about:blank" opens up a blank page - which is enough for what I wanted to do 🙂
