Does it work when you specify Arc in the Default Web Browser setting for Flow?
@djordjepekic Hi, no, it does not work even after adding a new entry for Arc in the Default Web Browser setting.
Screen shot of the setting:
Upon inspecting the default web browser path for Chrome in Flow's settings, I tested if using "arc" in Win + R brings up Arc too, and it does.
So, I updated Arc's entry in Default Web Browser setting to use "arc" as path, instead of the absolute path.
And I still face the same issue. No new tab is created.
Wrong @ š
Oops, sorry about that, @djordjepekic.
Looping in @deefrawley to the ticket.
maybe they shares a slightly different command line arg compared to other browser...
Probably nothing much we can do without a document or at least access to arc....if you understand how their command line interface work we are happy to accept pr.
Keep in mind that Arc for Windows is still very much experimental (latest version is 0.14.1) and lacks a lot of features present in all other browsers. For example, they added closing tabs by pressing Ctrl+F4 only 8 days ago.
That being said, I do have access to it, so if anyone has any ideas, I'm happy to try them.
I downloaded it (with school email). Seems to be interesting. As it is a appx package, it probably requires some additional handling compared to other browser. Also there's no document about the command line usage....
I guess the problem is on their side. There's no command line argument for its app....
Changing this from a bug to an enhancement as it seems the issue is with the browser, not Flow.
Yep, I've contacted them regarding this issue. Hoping that they attend to this.

I've been tinkering for awhile for this, and i accidently found this.
This is my setup: Basically in the General > Default Browser > Add > and insert the path to some random wording like "Non Existence Path" And it works š².

Thanks for sharing, though this doesn't work for me. Does anyone have any ideas other than this?

Checks
[X] I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
[X] I am using the latest version of Flow Launcher.
Problem Description
When I type a web search query in Flow Launcher and press to open it in the default browser, the browser opens but a new tab concerning the query never opens.
Arc is a new web browser for Windows, currently in closed beta. Should it be necessary for you to use the browser, join the waitlist at https://www.isarconwindowsyet.com/.
To Reproduce
I have run the following command just to determine if the issue lies with in Arc browser itself, and it worked fine.
Also, all external links to web sites open inside Arc browser as expected. Thus, it's safe to say that the issue lies within Flow Launcher.
