After a recent re-install de Windows 7, I faced one of peculiarities this operating systemThat not yet met. Ie: I set the a browser ca defaultand Windows 7, after each restart, set as default another browser. Of course, there is the Firefox (I) and Internet Explorer (Windows 7). It's all the more strange because, about two months ago, Microsoft - Pushed back the EU - foisted on us by now famous Browser Choice (update which I chose not to install - neither then nor now).
How to convince Windows 7 not to change the browser default from Firefox to Internet Explorer after each system restart
If the "traditional" method (ie Set Firefox as yours default browser or something like that) pink, maybe it's time to get down to action more "drastic", ie to we prohibit the computer from accessing Internet Explorer, Thereby forcing it to open any link that we click with your Firefox (or any other browser - different from Internet Explorer - which you want to use as default, despite the stubbornness of the operating system). To do this, you need to follow the steps below:
First you need to log in Windows using user Administrator (or any other user with full privileges of administrator), then click the Home and type default in Searchacquis in Start Menu (Then give Enter).
In the open window (Default Programs) Click on Set Program Access and Computer DefaultsThen select Custom from the list displayed.
Click on Choose a Default web browser, select Mozilla Firefox and check the option Enable Access to this Program to the right of it (be sure to uncheck the same option to the right of Internet Explorer), then enter OK and restart. This will force Windows 7 to completely ignore Internet Explorer and recognize Firefox as a browser default.
Nice surfing! ;)
