How do I set the default browser?

Each operating system has its own default browser, that is, a web browser that opens all web pages when navigating through these or other links. For example, in a popular Windows system such a program is Internet Explorer. If for some reason this web browser is not satisfied, you can choose another one, which today is pretty much on the Internet. The most famous and popular are the following: FireFox, Opera, Chrom, Safari.

By default, one of the above browsers is not difficult at all. First, when you start any of them, a window will appear on the user's monitor, where you will be asked to do it in one click by clicking on the "Yes" button.

Secondly, even if such a window with a suggestion to choose a browser by default does not appear, you can always do this in the settings. Installation in different versions of browsers may differ.

Third, you can install the default browser through the "Control Panel" in the Windows system.

Opera as the main browser

In order for the Opera to become the default browser, you need to open the "Settings" and the "Advanced" tab in the window of the program, select "Programs" on the left, tick the checkbox "Check if the Opera is the default browser" and click "OK" . Now Opera is the default browser.

Set Firefox as your default browser

To make this browser core on your computer, you need to launch it and click on the orange box labeled "Firefox" that is on the upper left. In the list that appears, select "Settings" and open the window. Select the "Advanced" section, then "General". In the "System settings" subsection tick the checkbox "Check if FireFox is the default browser" and click "Check now". A window appears where you need to make a selection by clicking "Yes".

Chrome as the primary web browser

Open the browser window and call up the settings by clicking on the special icon in the upper right corner. At the bottom of the settings page there is the "Default Browser" item, and under it the "Assign Chrome" button, after clicking on which favorite web browser will become the main one on the computer.

Set Safari as your default browser

To Safari become the main browser, you need to launch it and open the settings window by clicking on the gear in the right corner from the top, and then open the "Basic" section. Next to the top item "Browser by default", call the list with programs installed on your computer to browse the web and select the one you want.

Internet Explorer - the main browser

If you need to return to the main browser of the Windows system, click on the gear in the upper right corner and select the "Internet Options" section, where to go to the "Programs" subsection. At the very top next to the IE icon, click the "Use by default" button.

You can install the default browser in Windows by another way. Click "Start", go to "Control Panel", select the "Default Programs" section. Open "Select the default programs" and select the desired one from the list on the left. In the field to the right will appear the line "Use by default", click on it, and then click "OK".
