How do I move my WAMP local host from firefox to chrome?

I recently installed the WAMP server on my computer and when I open the localhost it automatically opens in firefox. I want it to open in chrome so I can use the chrome developer tools. How can make my local host open in chrome instead of firefox. Thanks in advance for taking the time to help me.

  • Open wampmanager.conf file in a text editor.
  • Change the navigator to your browser

    example:- navigator = “C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe”

  • save and restart your server
