  1. Default Browser


    Hi Good evening


    I am trying to set up my new desktop and I have the following question.

    Which browser should be the default? I need to have java and flash installed.

    And I decide which one to use, do I delete the other browsers?


    I am running Windows 10



    Thanks a lot

    :)

  2. Unable to set default browser

    • Does this issue happens while you try to set other browser as default too or is it specific to specific browser?

    Any browser.

    Already did the steps you suggested. It's some kind of bug where it's impossible to set a default browser at all.

    I heard elsewhere from one other user
    that it seems to be a problem with upgrading to 10 on the SP3. Sounds very specifc.
