Windows 10 is a great operating system, but it can be a little difficult to change the default browser. Here are some tips to help you change the default browser on Windows 10:
- Open the Start menu and type “netstat -an” to view the network status. This will show you how many active connections and devices are connected to your computer.
- To change the default browser, open the “System Preferences” app and select “Browser.” In the “Browser” section, select a different browser from the list of options.
- To uninstall a specific browser, open the “Programs and Features” app and select “Uninstall a program.” Select the desired browser from the list of programs that will be uninstalled.
Windows 10 makes it super easy to change your default web browser. This way, you can set Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Brave, or another browser of your choice as the default. We’ll show you how to do that.
Once you’ve set a browser as the default, your PC will open all your web links in that browser. Later, you can change the default browser again if you want.

In Settings, select “Apps.”
From the sidebar on the left, choose “Default Apps.”
On the right pane, under “Web Browser,” click the current default browser. In the below screenshot, it’s Google Chrome.

And that’s it. You’ve successfully changed your PC’s default browser. Enjoy!
