EdgeDeflector not listed as option for microsoft-edge protocol #114
Comments
Please go to Windows Settings: Apps: Default apps and click Reset to defaults. Reboot. Go back into Windows Settings: Apps: Default Apps: By protocol: MICROSOFT-EDGE. Does that fix it? If that works then your default program database was corrupted. This is a common problem in Windows. Some other things to test if that didn’t do the trick:

I have the same issue (version 1.2.2.0), and I checked my registry and I saw that |
@JVT038 does this work for you? @JVT038 Just to verify, that should be ( |
I tried resetting to defaults then rebooting, no change. I didn't change the install directory from the installer. Setting up a new user account and re-installing edgedeflector once logged in worked for the new account. I just don't know how to make that success translate into it working on my main account. Thanks for your patience and help. |
It unfortunately doesn't. |
I had the same problem. But I found a fix. Problems:
Why they occurred: I realized why it is like that. Because people have space in their user name, the reference path is getting chopped right at that space.

This will fix da2x#114 (comment) tl;dr windows misreading the application path if the install directory has space which is most case scenario for user names.

This should be fixed in version 1.2.3.0. |
Unable to redirect cortana searches after a recent reinstall of the program. I believe windows has modified the location where non-standard apps are located.... looked up in the registry and EdgeDeflector doesn't exist in the aforementioned path. Expected Registry Entry: Current Location: Is this something which can be fixed on my machine? Currently when I install EdgeDeflector, it shows up in the control panel list, but no longer in the Default Apps page. Instead there is a blank icon with Edge written on it. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. |
See issue #141. |
In the 'Choose default apps by protocol' I have 5 options for MICROSOFT-EDGE:
Microsoft Edge(with edge logo)
My Username(no logo)
Microsoft Edge(no logo)
Microsoft Edge Beta(with edge logo with 'BETA' on it)
Look for an app in the Microsoft Store(with windows store logo)
I've tried re-running the installer and re-starting the machine, neither has had any effect.
Any idea how I can resolve this?
