Default browser with multiple users

Post by Malta Soron »

I'm using Windows XP with multiple users. I want to make Firefox the default browser of one user, and IE the default browser of the others. However, I don't seem to be able to change that per user, but only for the whole system. Do you know how to change the default browser for only one user?

Try this:

Haven't tried it myself, so can't comment on its usefullness - however - default browser is as far as I know something scattered around windows, which could explain your problems with setting it as you wish.

It works! I couldn't use the Preset for Firefox, but manually works also. Thanks!
