ANTS Profiler: Change the default browser?

Question

I cannot find this information anywhere.

Within Visual Studio I'm using the ANTS Profiler add-on. It always launches IE. My default browser is Firefox. I cannot find a setting anywhere where I can change the default.

Can someone help?

Answer 1

Unfortunately, at the moment, ANTS can only start IE, rather than your current default browser. For now, you would have to use the workaround of starting the profiling session, and then starting whichever browser you want to use manually.

Answer 2

There is no option to set the your browser default within Visual Studio. Instead you can use PowerShell to accomplish this. See the following for details:
