Getting enpass to open chrome rather than firefox

[abw]

Hi

I'm running Linux mint latest edition. I've got Firefox installed as well as Google Chrome. Chrome is set as my default browser in my system settings.  Yet, any hyper link in Enpass that I have opens Firefox. How do I get Enpass to point to Chrome? Anyone?   Thanks

Hey @abw

Welcome to the forum!

Please check if chrome is set as your default browser. If yes, please share the device and OS detail on which you are getting this issue so that we can assist you better. If possible, please share a video or screenshot of the issue. Thanks.

Garima Singh, you should have been able to answer this question by now. All you need to know is that I use the latest linux mint. There is most probably a .config in enpass that dictates which browser will open on the links saved in enpass. Now please tell me how to accomplish this.

Hi @abw

Please provide the details asked for by @Garima Singh and the Enpass team and forum members will attempt to answer your query.  The reason that posters are often asked for the details of their setup is that the software should be working as anticipated, and as it is not investigations need to be made as to why.  To do this the Enpass team may for instance set up a matching virtual environment to trouble shoot the problem, without input from the user with the problem makes it difficult to do this.  Please remember that it may not just be you that has a similar issue but other users who may not post to the forum.

Hi @abw

We understand your concern and are extremely sorry for the trouble you have been facing from a long time.

Our team is not able to reproduce the issue, could you please share a video of the issue so that we can try to diagnose it again. Also, please confirm the Enpass version.

Hi,

I am having the same issue. When I click on a link in EnPass, it opens Firefox instead of my default browser Chrome.

Chrome is set to be the default browser in settings. I double checked this by creating a hyperlink in a LibreOffice document, and the link opens Chrome as it should.

Enpass is the only application that is not opening the default browser.

 

The version of Enpass running on my machine is 6.6.0 (775).

Running Linux Mint 20.1

Further system details below:

System:    Kernel: 5.4.0-42-generic x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 9.3.0 Desktop: Cinnamon 4.8.6

Hey @DavidA & @abw

Welcome to the forum!

It seems that Enpass is not able to detect the default browser on your device. Please install xdg-utils package on your device and try the command below in the terminal.

xdg-open "https://www.enpass.io/"

It should open in the default browser.

Thanks!
