Browser - from English "browser" - a program for viewing web pages, adding text and other messages to sites and other resources, exchanging e-mail and using other types of Internet communication. Each OS has its own standard browser, used by "Default", but you can replace it to open access to the Internet through a more convenient program.
Instructions
Step 1
Download and install any browser you like: Mozilla, Chrome, Safari, Opera or similar. The only thing that can be guided by the choice is your experience and personal preferences. Installation of each of these browsers is free when downloading from the program developers' site, which, as a rule, consists of the name of the program and a prefix.
Step 2
Launch your browser. The first time you start it, it will offer to use it by default. You can refuse it for now and check its work. In this case, the default browser will remain the standard OS browser.
Step 3
If you are happy with the browser, replace the main one with it. To do this, go to the "Tools" menu. Further, depending on the type of browser, either in "Options" ("Google Chrome", "Safari"), or in "Settings".
Step 4
In the browser "Mozilla Firefox" go to the menu "Settings", then the tab "Advanced" and "General". Click the Check Now button. A message will appear on the screen with a proposal to make the browser the main one. Click the "Yes" button.
Step 5
For “Opera” the path is as follows: the “Tools” menu, then “General settings” - the “Advanced” tab. In the menu on the left, click the line "Programs". In the window that appears, find the line "Check that Opera is the default browser". Check the box in front of this option and save the settings. When prompted by the browser, click the "Yes" button.
Step 6
“Google Chrome” replaces the old default browser as follows. In the menu on the right, open the line "Options", then in the "General" find the button "Set Google Chrome" as the default browser. Click it and close the settings menu.
Step 7
To replace the browser with "Safari", click the menu on the right, then the "Settings" tab. In the "General" tab, before the first line, there is a comment: "Standard web browser:". After that, you will see the default browser. Click on the line to select the one you need from the list of browsers installed on your computer.
