Hello

My default browser is Chrome. I want to upgrade a software to the latest version. When I click the download link, the Internet Explorer browser is opening up.

I did look in Chrome configuration and it is mark as the default one. If that so, why do IE do appear.

Is there a default downloading browser? If so, I want Chrome.

Martin :)

Hello Martin,

That is odd. Double check in Default Programs to make sure that Google Chrome is set as the default program for all of it's associations.

Hope this helps, :)

Hello Shawn

The problem was when I click on a link from an help in external application ( trading software). Maybe the program was compiled using Internet Explorer extension. I went in the Windows 7 load application and put to off Internet Explorer. I did not succeed to open the help using Chrome, but I did get my info by searching on the web. Chrome was set to be the default, but not for this one...

Thank you.

Martin
