Windows 11/10操作系统的美妙之处在于，您对应用程序选择一无所知。对于每个操作、协议或文件类型，您都有大量的应用程序可以处理它。Windows 10希望(wants )您将Edge用作默认 Web 浏览器。
但是，您可能更喜欢使用其他浏览器，例如Google Chrome或Mozilla Firefox。好处是您可以选择任何浏览器作为默认浏览器(any browser as the default browser)。不幸的是，对于某些用户，Windows系统倾向于将您选择的浏览器随机重置回Edge 。如果您遇到此问题，请参阅以下解决方法。
如果Windows不断更改您的默认浏览器怎么办
在解决此问题时，我们将首先确保您正确设置默认浏览器。之后，我们将通过方法永久更改默认浏览器。我们将通过以下解决方案：
- 如何设置您的默认网络浏览器。
- 按协议和应用设置(Set)默认应用。
- 更新相关应用程序。
- 使用这个免费工具。
继续(Continue)阅读完整步骤：
1]如何(How)设置您的默认网络浏览器
当您说 Windows 不断将您的默认浏览器更改为Edge时，我假设您已经将其他浏览器设置为默认浏览器。我为可能错误地设置了默认浏览器的用户添加了这个解决方案。
可能是Windows没有将您的默认浏览器重置为Edge，但您只是没有正确选择默认浏览器。在我们继续进行更多故障排除方法之前，让我们先回顾一下选择默认程序的过程。
首先，请注意，当您第一次打开要使用的浏览器时，它可能会询问您是否要将其设置为默认浏览器。允许此操作，并确保选中不再询问我(Don’t ask me again)复选框。
以下是在Windows 10(Windows 10)中更改默认浏览器的方法。
- 按Windows key + I 组合打开设置。
- 在设置中，单击 应用程序(Apps)。
- 选择左侧窗格 中的默认应用程序选项并滚动到(Default apps)Web 浏览器(Web browser)部分。
- 单击(Click)或点击此处显示的应用程序，然后选择要设置为默认选项的浏览器。
这篇文章将向您展示如何在 Windows 11 中更改默认浏览器(Change the Default Browser in Windows 11)。
如果您已完成此操作，但系统继续将默认浏览器重置为Edge，请继续执行下一个方法。
2]通过协议和应用程序设置(Set)默认应用程序
如果Windows总是重置您的默认浏览器，则以更多方式设置默认值有助于加强您的选择并解决问题。
在上述第一个解决方案中选择了默认浏览器后，我们还将选择此浏览器作为处理特定协议和应用程序的默认应用程序。
Windows + I返回 Windows 设置 ，然后转到 Apps > Default apps。在这里，向下滚动页面，直到看到以下链接：
- 按文件类型选择默认应用。
- 按协议选择默认应用。
- 按应用设置默认值。
按协议选择默认浏览器
我们不需要 此解决方案的按文件类型选择默认应用程序 (Choose default apps by file type )选项。因此，我们将从 按协议选择默认应用程序 (Choose default apps by protocol )选项开始。
点击(Click)链接继续。向下滚动(Scroll)页面并查找 HTTP。单击(Click)HTTP选项旁边的应用程序，然后选择您喜欢的浏览器。在此之后，找到 HTTPS（应该在HTTP下）并为(HTTP)HTTPS协议选择一个浏览器。
通过应用设置默认浏览器
返回上一个 默认应用程序 (Default apps )屏幕，向下滚动到页面底部，然后选择 按应用程序设置默认值(Set defaults by app)选项。单击(Click)要设置的浏览器， 然后单击单击显示的“管理”按钮。(Manage)
在下一个屏幕上，找到以下扩展名和协议： .htm、.HTML、.shtml、.svg、.webp、.xht、.xhtml、HTTP和HTTPS。接下来，单击每个旁边的应用程序，然后选择您的默认浏览器。
3]更新相关应用程序
这听起来很简单，但很棘手。根据Microsoft的说法，如果您选择的浏览器和应用程序与应用程序和计算机不兼容，您的系统会重置默认浏览器和应用程序关联。
这种现象也出现在其他应用程序中。例如，早期版本的Adobe Acrobat Reader可能无法处理较新的PDF(PDFs)。如果您选择了旧的Adobe Reader，然后尝试打开新的PDF，Windows会将默认应用程序重置为Edge。
所以更新浏览器看看。
4]使用这个免费工具
要防止Windows重置您选择的默认浏览器，请确保您的应用程序与您选择的浏览器兼容。如果您遇到Windows更改您的默认应用程序而不仅仅是浏览器的问题，您可以使用免费软件停止重置我的应用程序(Stop Resetting My Apps)来修复它。
祝一切顺利。
Windows keeps changing default browser
The beauty of the Windows 11/10 operating system is that you’re spoiled for choice rеgarding aрp selection. For every action, protocol, or file type, yоu have tons of apps that can handle it. Windows 10 wants you to use Edge as the default web browser.
However, you may prefer to use a different browser, such as Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. The good thing is that you can pick any browser as the default browser. Unfortunately, the Windows system tends to reset your choice browser back to Edge randomly for some users. If you’re experiencing this issue, here’s how to fix it.
What to do if Windows keeps changing your default browser
In troubleshooting this issue, we’ll first make sure that you set the default browser correctly. After that, we’ll go through ways to change the default browser permanently. We’ll go through the following solutions:
- How to set your default web browser.
- Set default app by protocol and app.
- Update the relevant applications.
- Use this free tool.
Continue reading for the full steps:
1] How to set your default web browser
When you say Windows keeps changing your default browser to Edge, I assume that you’ve already set a different browser as the default. I added this solution for users who might’ve been setting the default browser wrongly.
It could be that Windows isn’t resetting your default browser to Edge, but you’ve just not chosen the default browser correctly. Before we proceed to more troubleshooting methods, let’s first go over the process of selecting a default program.
First, note that the first time you open the browser you want to use, it may ask if you wish to set it as your default browser. Allow this action, and make sure to mark the Don’t ask me again checkbox.
Here’s how to change your default browser in Windows 10.
- Open Settings by pressing the Windows key + I combination.
- In Settings, click on Apps.
- Select the Default apps option on the left pane and scroll to the Web browser section.
- Click or tap on the application shown there and select the browser you want to set as your default option.
This post will show you how to Change the Default Browser in Windows 11.
If you’ve done this, but the system continues to reset the default browser to Edge, continue to the next methods.
2] Set default app by protocol and app
If Windows always resets your default browser, setting the default in many more ways helps reinforce your choice and fix the issue.
Having chosen the default browser in the first solution above, we’ll also choose this browser as the default app for handling specific protocols and applications.
Return to Windows Settings using Windows + I and go to Apps > Default apps. Here, scroll down the page till you see the following links:
- Choose default apps by file type.
- Choose default apps by protocol.
- Set defaults by app.
Choose default browser by protocol
We don’t need the Choose default apps by file type option for this solution. So, we’ll begin with the Choose default apps by protocol option.
Click on the link to continue. Scroll down the page and look for HTTP. Click on the application next to the HTTP option and pick your preferred browser. After this, find HTTPS (should be right under HTTP) and select a browser for the HTTPS protocol.
Set default browser by the app
Return to the previous Default apps screen, scroll down to the bottom of the page, and select the Set defaults by app option. Click on the browser you want to set, and hit the Manage button that the click reveals.
On the next screen, find the following extensions and protocols: .htm, .HTML, .shtml, .svg, .webp, .xht, .xhtml, HTTP, and HTTPS. Next, click on the app next to each of them, and choose your default browser.
3] Update the relevant applications
This sounds like a no-brainer, but it’s tricky. According to Microsoft, your system resets the default browser and app associations if the one you picked is incompatible with the apps and the computer.
This phenomenon also occurs in other apps. For example, earlier editions of Adobe Acrobat Reader may not handle newer PDFs. If you chose the old Adobe Reader and then attempt to open a new PDF, Windows will reset the default app to Edge.
So update the browser and see.
4] Use this free tool
To prevent Windows from resetting your choice of the default browser, ensure that your apps are compatible with the browser of your choice. If you experience Windows changing your default apps and not only the browser, you can fix it by using freeware Stop Resetting My Apps.
All the best.
