Default Browser

[Brian Shannon]

I have been having problems with IE 6 so I am temperarily using Mozilla.
Does anyone know how to change the default browser that .NET studio opens
when you are testing/compiling a project?

I can't figure this out. I set Mozilla to my default browser in XP's
control panel but vs.net still opens IE.

Thanks

I don't believe you can change this. I'm not 100% sure though.

I was curious because I have been playing with Mozilla a little and it's a
lot faster and I have some spy crap on my test machine that is slowing IE
down right now that I can't figure out how to eliminate.

Anyway Good ol Microsoft forcing you to use there products.

Thanks for the input!

There is a setting in VS.NET 2003 that specifies if IE is always used. If
you go into the properties for your project, go to Configuration Properties,
and then Debugging. There is a setting called Always Use Internet Explorer.
If you change this to false, it should default to the OS default browser.

Yeah, I was happy about finding it too when I was doing a cross-browser
project. Made debugging a lot easier! ;-)
