dota 2 shortcut doesnt open with steam
while i was installing a web browser during setup it asked if i wanted to open url as main browser, since then all my desktop shortcuts including dota 2 and other game shortcuts open first the browser and then the browser opens steam and then dota 2


cant uninstall the browser now cause its neccessary with my logins and what not,

so is there a way to make steam take back full control of its game shortcuts ?

Scroll down the list until you find ".url". If it is ANYTHING other than "Internet Browser", click it and change it to, exactly, "Internet Browser" and restart your computer.
