    Resolved [RESOLVED] vs2005 tries to open firefox as web browser...

    Ok, so i have both firefox and internet explorer installed.

    Generally i use firefox 2 for all my surfing, but i need to develop a website that will only be used for IE...as my place of employment only uses IE. and the css is all skewiff.

    I have firefox set as default browser using the set program access and defaults doovey.

    So, visual studio opens mozilla as my browser when debuggin my .net app.

    so i changed the defaults back to ie. same thing.

    tried uninstalling firefox. now it just comes up with a 'cannot find path to firefox error'...

    So i tried repairing visual studio...again same cannot file path to firefox error.

    so i then installed IE7, thinking it would overwrite any defaults...well, no, it hasnt.

    i know i can re-install firefox...but then i have to open ie as well....

    im just wondering, does anyone know how to change the default web browser when debugging. i have looked all through the options.

    Cheers, Justin

    Install both your browsers back. Don't mess around with them. Instead, in solution explorer, right click the solution/project/top level node, then click on "Browse with..." and choose IE.
