1407534	2015-08-28 06:01:00	I've upgraded to whats becoming, the dreaded windows 10. My problem is with me browsers. I have Chrome and Firefox and don't like the new microsoft one at all. My problem is trying to set say Chrome as the default. Brings up a new window for setting defaults, I tell it to use Chrome and quite, but it wont change. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?	ianhnz (4263)
1407535	2015-08-28 06:09:00	I've not had any issues with changing the default browser - have you tried typing 'default' in the search, then open the 'Default Programs' app, choose 'set your default programs' then choose Chrome from that list, and choose 'set the program as default', then click OK.	wratterus (105)

Yes tried that but get the felling it don't like me. Was thinking about reverting, but was reading on here that it sometimes stuffs up and you get nothing.....	ianhnz (4263)

Try it from within the new settings, NOT the old defaults in the control panel. Click Start, Settings,System - Default Apps. Click the browser and select your browser. 6712 If that doesn't hold, scroll down the page a little, open the choose default apps by file type - Select .html - select Browser 6713	wainuitech (129)
