FWIW, I put Chrome in Areca's config file and it still didn't work. I even repointed the /usr/bin/firefox symlink to Chrome and it worked pretty much everywhere else, butnot in Areca: With /usr/bin/firefox symlinked to Chrome, nothing happens from Areca. Oh well, good thing I've read the help and don't refer to it much anymore.

Dan,

Pulled the following default config for Areca. Programmers may sometimes hard code the options. I suggest you find "fwk.properties" and amend the "os.browsers= " to include "google-chrome-stable" I think it will resolve this programs issue. Caveat, I am not a programmer, just been mucking around the Linux system for a bit and understand the beauty in it's simplicity. While hopefully this discussion will prompt the developers, who are grossly under appreciated imho btw, to a more unified convention; we can get by with these little fixes. Hope this helps and you are able to ferret out the other programs you are having issue with on your system.

# Miscellaneous settings
backup.debug = false
smtp.debug=false
cache.preload = false
os.browsers = firefox, opera, konqueror, epiphany, mozilla, netscape <<<-- these are the browsers is in order of priority presumably
sse.protocols = SSL, TLS, TLS-P, TLS-C
repository.check.consistency = true
log.default.history = 10
delta.debug = false
