Im not sure if you can do it through a group policy, maybe writing batch script at logon might work? Not sure how to write the script so apologies if this answer is pointless...Just an idea.<br />

Hi,<br />
<br />
I am trying to set Firefox as default browser, using Group Policy in Windows Server 2003, for a couple of computers with Windows XP in my domain. I have tried to google it and chek around this site, but all I can &nbsp;find is how too set IE as default browser. I have also tried the &quot;firefox.adm&quot; template I found in a similar topic but that only let's me disable the check, not set firefox as default.<br />
<br />
Any ideas/templates would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

I am trying to set Firefox as default browser, using Group Policy in Windows Server 2003, for a couple of computers with Windows XP in my domain. I have tried to google it and chek around this site, but all I can  find is how too set IE as default browser. I have also tried the "firefox.adm" template I found in a similar topic but that only let's me disable the check, not set firefox as default.

Web browsers are applications used primarily to display documents, files and media from the Internet, identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that can be a page, image, video or other file. Some browsers require the use of add-ons or extensions to safely render the information they receive; others have systems built into them to perform the same functions.

Active Directory (AD) is a Microsoft brand for identity-related capabilities. In the on-premises world, Windows Server AD provides a set of identity capabilities and services, and is hugely popular (88% of Fortune 1000 and 95% of enterprises use AD). This topic includes all things Active Directory including DNS, Group Policy, DFS, troubleshooting, ADFS, and all other topics under the Microsoft AD and identity umbrella.

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
