Which W10 services are needed for BrowserPicker to run #99

Closed Galeforce1 closed 5 months ago

Galeforce1 commented 6 months ago

I've just turned off a number of Window 10 services to make my PC run better, and now BrowserPicker has stopped working when I click a link in Mailbird (my email app).

The BrowserPicker app itself works when running from the Start menu, and I can remove & disable browsers normally.

Which W10 services are needed for BrowserPicker to run?

I am not aware of any windows services it requires, it simply gets invoked as the default browser by windows and reads settings from your registry.

Ok, thanks.

I have built a portable version of BrowserPicker which bundles the .net runtime with the executable in this build - there is a chance this would work better for you, if you want to give it a go. do note there is no msi for this version at this time.
