It seems like we could get the default browser on Windows by running a command like
reg QUERY HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Associations\UrlAssociations\http\UserChoice /v ProgId
Which prints output like
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Associations\UrlAssociations\http\UserChoice ProgId REG_SZ ChromeHTML
Or
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Associations\UrlAssociations\http\UserChoice ProgId REG_SZ MSEdgeDHTML
We wouldn't be able to get a similarly compatible id, as far as I can see, but we could categorize and retrieve the name. E.g: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-js-debug/blob/master/src/common/defaultBrowserProvider.ts
id
name
Would you be open to a PR to add support for this?
Sure, PR welcome :)
