How Google is planning to make Chrome the default browser on Windows 11 with a single click
Microsoft introduced Windows 11 with a new method of setting a default browser. Rather than simply allowing users to choose a default platform for all browser-related tasks, the tech giant made sure that users had to manually pick their default browser for virtually everything. According to a report by 9to5Google, “it was a clear move to keep users on Microsoft Edge, the default browser on Windows 11, as much as possible.”
However, after the criticism, Microsoft got back to Windows 10’s method of changing the browser which allows users to switch platforms with one click from the Settings menu. Moreover, the steps to change the browser in Windows 11 have also remained the same.
But Google might be planning something else. Google Chrome may soon include support for changing the default browser on Windows without even leaving the browser. As per the report, the latest version of Google Chrome for Windows (in beta phase) has added support for automatically switching your default browser with a single click.
