    Default Browser Keeps Changing to Edge

    There are three other ways to set your default program. In Default apps, navigate the page to find the following:

    • Choose default apps by file type
    • Choose default apps by protocol
    • Set defaults by app

    To manually change your default browser, follow these steps:

    • Set your preferred default browser to skip Choose default apps by file type. Click
      Choose default apps by protocol then look for HTTP and HTTPS. Change them to your preferred browser.
    • After that, click Set defaults by app and wait for the new windows to load. Search your preferred browser and click it. Select
      Set this program as default and press OK.
    • Close all your browsers and check if it still asks you to set your browser.

    Let us know how it goes after doing the troubleshooting steps.

    Hi Kumar,

    I realize that you get notification message when you open Chrome. I will try to help you with this issue.

    Please answer these questions to get more clarity on this issue:


    • Did you make any changes to the pc prior to this issue?

    Follow these steps to confirm that Chrome is set as the default browser:


    • Press “Windows key + I” to get the “Settings” screen.

    • Click on “System” and click on “Default apps”.

    • Under “Web Browser” select Chrome.

    Default Browser Keeps Changing to Edge

    Hi Athena,

    Edge is the built-in browser recommended on Windows 10. The option to change the default browser to your preferred browser are as follows:

    • Type Settings in Cortana search, then press
      Enter.
    • Click System, then select Default apps.
    • Under the Choose default apps, click Web browser and then select your preferred browser.

    Feel free to post back if you need further assistance.
