Issue 3515: "Set Chrome as default browser" should be per-user (if
installed into user profile directory)
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=3515
New issue report by blackboxxx:
Chrome Version : 0.3.154.3
URLs (if applicable) : N/A
Other browsers tested:
Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
Safari 3: -
Firefox 3: -
IE 7: OK
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Options > Make Google Chrome my default browser
2.
3.
What is the expected result?
Since Chrome is installed under user profile, it should be registered as
default browser for this user only. No UAC prompt should appear.
"ChromeHTML" key should be written under HKCU\Software\Classes.
What happens instead?
UAC prompt appears. A new registry key HKLM\Software\Classes\ChromeHTML is
created.
Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.
Actually I'm a firm believer that all programs should go into "Program
Files" directory. However, if Chrome is a per-user application, it should
behave consistently in making itself default browser, i.e., write to the
registry under HKCU\Software\Classes instead of HKLM.
