Not seeing separate entries for EDGE (Mac) and EDGE (Windows) on Mac with Parallels installed #645

Closed divebc closed 1 year ago

Is there an existing issue for this?

Current Behaviour

On a Mac with Parallels Desktop 18 with Application concurrence enabled, Browserosaurus does not differentiate between the MAC and Windows version of browsers as separate installs.

On my device, anything sent to EDGE is now defaulting to sending to the Windows version, vs being able to select between the WINDOWS and MACOS versions.

The same applies for CHROME, Firefox and any other browser that is installed natively and in the Parallels Desktop.

With both applications are named the same, it seems that Browserosaurus can not handle a situation with a name conflict.

Expected Behaviour

I would expect that BOTH OS versions to be seen, and treated as separate applications when Scan is complete allowing for listing of both in the browser list.

Alternatively, I would expect Browserosaurus to detect a name clash and append a modifier on the system to account for the conflict.

Regardless of type of resolution, both browsers should be visible.

Steps To Reproduce

Install Parallels 18, and enable Application Concurrence Complete a Browserosaurus scan Click a link - it will default to one or the other
