Cant switch default browser
I'm running Win98se. For many years my default browser was K-Meleon, and
I also had the highest (usable in 98) version of Firefox installed. (FF version 3.x). K-Meleon no longer works on almost any website, and the upgrades for it are only for XP and higher. I want to switch and make Firefox the default browser. But I cant make it switch. I went to the Options in FF and clicked on "Make FF the Default Browser". That does nothing, and I have tried to do it at least 10 times. I even made a backup of K-Meleon and deleted it. Then went to FF and clicked on "make FF the default". Still nothing. All it did then, was to keep annoying me by saying it cant find K-Meleon.exe. I even went so far as to modify my registry to remove all references to K-Meleon. Then went to FF and once again, clicked on "Make FF the default". Still no change..... I since restored the registry and put back K-Meleon from the backup. How the heck can I make FF my default browser? After that, I'll remove K-Meleon permanently. |
