Error launching configuration page post-installation #17

Closed kzha0 closed 8 months ago

kzha0 commented 8 months ago

Describe the bug:

An error dialog that appears after installation

To Reproduce:

  1. Launch the installer syncthing-1.27.2-setup.exe
  2. Follow the steps
  3. Select Administrative (system-wide) install mode.
  4. Tick the option to launch configuration page after completing installation.
  5. Click finish

Expected behavior:

The installer should open the browser and redirect the user to the configuration page (which is on https://127.0.0.1:8384 by default)

Actual behavior:

The installer failed to open the browser and instead showed an error dialog.

Screenshots:

Additional context:

I am using Windows 10 LTSC.

I looked into the problem and realized that the issue may not be related to the installer.

It seems that the issue is related to my system configuration and the way windows handles default programs for specific files, including .url files.

Thanks for the update. You are correct that the file association needs to be in place for the post-install configuration launch page to open correctly.
