    I can't set "http" and "https" default apps


    When i try to open "http" and "https" files, popup comes and says "You'll need a new app to open this https" but clicking on an app doesn't change anything. It wants to select a web browser again. I tried in settings i can change the other extensions like .txt .png but http and https dont change. I tried reseting all default apps but it didnt work. Can i do anything about it like setting in cmd regedit or something?

    :)

  4. I can't set "http" and "https" default apps

    Setting Default Apps in the Settings app doesn't work

    I have the same problem but I would like to set the Iron browser to default. I can set any browser when using set default by apps but SRware Iron does not even show up on the apps list. It is installed. I even reinstalled it as someone else suggested.
    Why is this the only browser that I cannot set as default.
