Attempting to programmatically set the default browser on macOS causes a prompt to appear for the end user.
This prompt is a macOS security feature that can only be automated away by using an AppleScript. Because of this limitation, there are two main methods for setting Microsoft Edge as the default browser on a macOS.
The first option is to flash the device with an image of macOS where Microsoft Edge has already been set as the default browser. When using either of these methods, it is still possible for a user to change the default browser. Accordingly it's necessary, that the Firefox Launcher must be adapted for maintaining of the portability. EDIT: Furthermore you can reach the goal by using the operating system of the host computer.
And in the mozillaZine article Default browser you can find in the section "Windows" under the paragraph "Setting default browser manually" a third possibility for Windows 7. But once again don't forget, that all these alterations affect the portability negative. Of course you can find a lot of possibilities for the solution of your problem. But apparently you overlooked a very important feature.
Namely the portability of the Firefox browser. Because I already have mentioned in my previous comment, all that different variants have one main disadvantage. In every case some stuff will be remain on the host computer e. And this fact contradict clearly the portability of Firefox.
They address Firefox Portable specifically so there are no portability issues. I've been happily using the XP one for years. Probably too many I have not checked the portability of the file "RegisterFirefoxPortable. Consequently the first question is, if this program by itself is portable on all Windows OS?
A few days ago I've performed on my computer with the OS Windows 8 the steps 1 - 4 , which I've explained in this comment. Afterwards click on the ". Assuming I am able to remove these both entries which I can't remove until now as I reported in my thread regarding to this topic. My second question is now, if these both entries again appear after the usage of the file "RegisterFirefoxPortable.
And if so, then this will be a clear indication, that this program isn't portable. Top Log in or register to post comments August 2, - pm Reply to 7 8 Sicknero Offline Last seen: 8 years 3 months ago Joined: Portable vs.
Stealth Portable Making registry entries, or writing data to Appdata for example, does not disqualify a program from being called portable, in my view. A portable program to me, is one that can be run without being installed, and can be moved to another machine and still run whether from flash drive or IDE. Your criteria of no registry entries or traces of any kind, is what makes a program "stealth portable", which to me is a different class of portable software.
Obviously if you want Firefox Portable to be the default browser then this involves making registry entries Any degree of integration with a host machine, whether being a default file handler or just having a context menu item, involves registry changes. The program is still portable though, as these changes are a matter of choice and convenience for the user, and aren't a requirement for the program to function.
Thus while "RegisterFirefoxPortable" is in itself a portable application, of course it writes to the registry when doing what it does. This is its entire purpose - it would otherwise be a completely pointless program. As regarding the other posts that you've linked to, I have examined quite recently exactly what registry changes it makes because of a project of my own. You could do the same by using some kind of registry snapshot application, such as the one that's built in to System Explorer, or Regshot which is a standalone snapshotter.
All you need to do is take a "pre-" snapshot, then run RegisterFirefoxPortable, then take a "post-" snapshot and compare the two. This will show you exactly what registry changes have been made and thus what needs to be removed to reverse the changes. For a meaningful communication it is first necessary, that people use clear and unambiguous definitions concerning certain issues.
Without such strict definitions we talk past each other literally. With respect to a portable program exists a lot of different criteria. And one significant criterion is, that when you unplug the device, none of your personal data is left behind on the host computer. And only in connection with the fulfillment of these criteria were meant my explanations.
Of course you can make your own determinations regarding portable programs. But I've assumed, that you have turned to this forum, because you are interested at portable programs in the sense, which I described above. This statement is incorrect.
