All things tech

For some reason, when I clicked links in TweetDeck, they would open in FireFox even though my default browser is Chrome.  Here’s how to change that on XP.

1. Click “Start”->”Settings”->”Control Panel”->”Add or Remove Programs”
2. Click the “Set Program Access and Defaults” button on the left
3. Expand the selected configuration
4. Set Chrome (or whatever browser you want to use) as the default Web browser

I don’t know why TweetDeck doesn’t automatically direct it to the default browser (maybe it’s an Adobe AIR problem), but that’s how to fix it.
