Detecting Default Browser

Is it possible to detect the users default web browser from a NSIS script?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Yes!
You can

Name "defBrow"

OutFile "defBrow.exe"

ShowInstDetails show

XPStyle on



Function .onInit

InitPluginsDir

FunctionEnd



Section

FileOpen $0 "$PLUGINSDIR\dummy.htm" "w"

FileClose $0

System::Call "Shell32::FindExecutable(t '$PLUGINSDIR\dummy.htm', i 0, t .r1)"

DetailPrint "Your Default Browser is:"

DetailPrint $1

SectionEnd

You can later parse the executable to see if is IE, or FF or Opera, etc...
