Browser Forwarding Suggestion

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Windows 10

Java version (build 1.8.0_251-b08)

In the settings the browser forwarding function doesn't seem to acknowledge that I have Opera or Opera GX installed. This would be a pretty useful inclusion, at least for me and future users that happen to use these browsers. It said to select all and delete for a feature suggestion so I think this isn't misuse?
There seems to be an issue with browsers detection in general, you just add all them by hand right? Seems tough. Don't know much coding, would have helped otherwise.

It is surprisingly Opera and Opera GX does not register themselves in the Start Menu\Internet registry like common browsers would do. See #29 and people made a quick solution. I will add a way to select custom browser in the future.

No, osumer reads the currently installed browsers from the registry directly, which I expect most browsers that register themselves correctly could be shown there.

Oh right... sorry for the bother then. I'll do that manually. Sweet app, thanks.
