Browser list refreshes after certain amount of time

[molohov]

I have added two custom browsers to browser picker, like so: I then remove Firefox and Edge, so that my custom browsers are the only two choices when browser picker is launched.

However, after a certain amount of time, they reappear in the list of browsers, as if 'Refresh browser list' had been clicked in the background. They will reappear at the top of the list of browsers. There is no clear pattern as to when they reappear. Sometimes it's after I logout, sometimes it's within the same session.

I realized I could work around this by disabling those browsers, instead of removing them. It still seems like a bug that they would reappear after being removed, though.

it is a feature, not a bug, it actually periodically does a scan in case a new browser has been installed. disabling is meant for what you are trying to do. Any reason why disable is not "good enough"? Do you maybe want to just hide disabled browsers in the configuration window?

Thanks for clarifying. I was just expecting different behavior, but disabling the browsers is indeed good enough.
