Trying to set Chrome as default browser. Keeps opening Firefox.

Even though I set my default browser to Chrome, it continues to open Firefox instead. Here is what is in my View In Browser.sublime-settings file: { "selectedBrowser": "chrome" }

Hi, I was having the same issue. You just need to use "open in browser" not "view in browser". When you right click on a document you can see both options.

So with my browser default set to chrome this works in ST3. If you want a hotkey i use this.

[ { "keys": ["ctrl+alt+c"], "command": "open_in_browser" }, ]

I am running ST3 on Windows 10 and was experiencing the same problem.

I resolved it by doing following:

1

Open: Preference; Package Settings; View In Browser; Settings - User

2

I cut and pasted following from the Settings - Default

{ "nt": { "win32": { "firefox": "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe -new-tab", "iexplore": "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe", "chrome": "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe", "canary": "C:\Users\sgx\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome SxS\Application\chrome.exe", "yandex": "%Local AppData%\Yandex\YandexBrowser\browser.exe" } },

"browser": "iexplore",
"browser": "chrome",
"browser": "canary"

}

3

I made changes to paths for both chromes ( chrome & chrome canary )

4

I added following lines for default used when : ctrl + alt + v

"browser": "iexplore",
"browser": "chrome",
"browser": "canary"

5

If I type ctrl + Alt + v it goes to canary If I type ctrl + Alt + c it goes to chrome If I type ctrl + Alt + f it goes to firefox If I type ctrl + Alt + I it goes to iexplore

I couldn't find the default windows key map file I suspect it's built into view-in-browser:

sublime-view-in-browser / Default (Windows).sublime-keymap

The above file contains following settings:

[ { "keys": [ "ctrl+alt+v" ], "command": "view_in_browser" }, { "keys": [ "ctrl+alt+f" ], "command": "view_in_browser", "args": { "browser": "firefox" } }, { "keys": [ "ctrl+alt+c" ], "command": "view_in_browser", "args": { "browser": "chrome" } }, { "keys": [ "ctrl+alt+i" ], "command": "view_in_browser", "args": { "browser": "iexplore" } }, { "keys": [ "ctrl+alt+s" ], "command": "view_in_browser", "args": { "browser": "safari" } } ]

Make sure path to chrome listed is correct and actually goes to the correct folder that contains chrome.exe file

The simple answer is to set Preference > Package Settings > View In Browser > Settings - User to:

{
  "browser": "chrome"
}
