Create BAT File to Start Internet Explorer in SAFE MODE

Our users have problem with Internet Explorer and I suspect it's their Add-on, so I want them to start IE in Safe Mode. I'd like to create a .BAT file for this so users can easily click it instead of manually starting IE in Safe Mode.

This is my first time writing a .BAT file and unfortunately I have no luck. When I double-click the .BAT file it only prompts a DOS window for a second but nothing happens. Could you please give me guidance? This is my code:

@ECHO OFF
cd C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer
iexplorer.exe -extoff

You shouldn't need to move to the directory first, and you have named the executable incorrectly

"%ProgramFiles%\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" -extoff http://stackoverflow.com/

You can of course also run it without the URL.
