The later could be kedit, kxmleditor, kpdf, etc. That are no browsers.

Open http and https URLs (some users may not know what these are) * in an application based on the contents of the URL (some users may not understand which application this is referring to) * in the following browser (this should be fine) Further information on this can be located in a bugged filed in Launchpad at https://launchpad.net/bugs/111032 Thanks!

B) "in the following browser". There are two problems with the interface: 1- if A) is selected, then the name of the default browser is not visible. 2- It is not possible to change the default browser and keep A) selected. To do so, the workaround is to select B), type in the browser name, save, then select A) again, save again. When coming back later to the same screen, the first problem occurs again. http://linux.overshoot.tv/wiki/default_browser_kde Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase- workspace/+bug/111032/comments/12 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2018-11-26T06:30:04+00:00 Kde-bugs-f wrote: Logically, the settings should be split into two different settings: - One setting to select the default browser. - One setting to select default action, with A) as above and B) reading: "in the default browser". Where are the relevant settings saved? I checked ~/.config/systemsettingsrc but it does not appear to be there.
