Steam Deck

Steam Deck

Select your favorite browser
Ever happened to you? You're browsing in Steam and you click on a link, only to have it open up in a browser you don't like and don't use.

Well, I found the solution to this...

0) If you are in gaming mode, please go to desktop mode.

1) On the desktop, locate your cursor on the bottom left corner and click on "Application Launcher".

2) Once open you are going to search: "Default Applications" (the icon is a yellow star).

3) The first option ("Web browser") is the one you are going to change, select your favorite browser and click on "Apply".

Done! you can try opening any link in Steam and it should open the Browser you selected.

:steamhappy:

indeed fren
maybe people coming from windows are not aware you can install many web browsers very easy with just a click using Discover(software center, the icon that looks like a bag in desktop mode)
I think the best browsers are Mullvad, Librewolf and Brave. Firefox is ok also.
I use Brave very good browser, it was really annoying when it does not open automatically :steamfacepalm:
