Make Sandboxie/Firefox the default browser?[SOLVED]

Post by Ed DeWan » Mon Jul 18, 2016 11:57 am

Windows 7, sp 1.

When I click on a web link in my emailer, my default browser, Firefox, fires up, even though I have a sandboxed browser installed. I can't change this in control panel, because they don't recognize the sandboxed browser, only the original Firefox. Is there some way to get Windows 7 to recognize the sandboxed version? (Yes, I am in the process of upgrading to Windows 10, so that would be an acceptable answer to this question.)

Ed, what you need to do is...Force Firefox. Make firefox.exe a Forced program.

Forced programs is one of the features that gets unlocked in Sandboxies paid version.
