Default Browser not opening

[ciryon02]

Hello

I use Ubuntu 14.04 and run Hero Lab with Wine.

Each time I click on an option to see a local (on my computer) documentation like :
- Help > Hero Lab Manual
- Help > Hero Lab Tutorial
- Help > More Documentation > Authoring Kit Manual
- Help > Mutants & Masterminds (3rd) Manual
- Help > Mutants & Masterminds (3rd) FAQ

A Chromium web browser page is opened to show the local files wanted. I do not have this problem when I click on other links to see online contents like Help > Visit company website, the correct browser is opened.

Hi there,

When you view the Hero Lab manual or tutorial, Hero Lab tells the shell "Please open the file c:\whatever\manual.htm for me". We don't specify which program to open in - that's up to the operating system. On windows, for example, the file association for .htm files is used to determine how to open the file.

I'm not sure how things work on Wine, but if you don't want Chromium to be used to open the manual pages, is there a way you can change the program launched when .htm files are executed? It should be the same one that opens if you simple double-clicked a .htm file on the desktop.

Thanks, I will search that direction.
