  • Game Version: current

  • Platform: (Steam windows )

  • Mods: never had any

  • Hardware Specifications & Operating System (windows 11, intel 14900HX, nvidia 4080 laptop, 32GB, 1 TB):

  • Issue Date: 9.5.2026

  • Error Message:

  • Details: Everytime I try opening Canvas, or the forums through the ingame buttons it forces it to open in Microsoft edge, even though my default browser is opera GX and everything I have is set to open in GX. Please provide the option to change in which browser it opens, I hate edge and never use it and do not want to be forced into using it for a game. I have uninstalled the game for now, will see if re-install fixes it. If not I might consider a refund, being forced to use edge is a torture method /joking but only halfway.

I think you should investigate Windows settings more carefully, rather than the game. My default browser is Firefox, and Canvas always opens in it for me.

I just spent two hours investigating them
Everything is set default to opera, even going to browser settings in opera assures me it is set to default.
Nothing BUT inzoi forces edge

What can you say? It’s Microsoft and their desire to promote their browser by any means possible.

But what happens if you set Chrome or Firefox as the default browser instead of Opera? Will Edge still be used anyway?

Try checking the registry as well. Maybe it will help? Windows 11 continues to default back to Edge. How to I change it permanently to not use edge and only the browser I select. - Microsoft Q&A

Yea microsoft sucks, I will attempt with a different web browser once the game finishes re-installing. Thanks for trying to help me out :smiley:

Update:

  • reinstalling the game did not fix it
  • trying firefox and chrome also does not fix it
  • downloaded MSEdgeRedirect to see if that works, now canvas and bug report do not open at all upon clicking on them.

Have you tried editing the registry as suggested in the advice above? Or is everything fine there?

Maybe try checking the system files? Through the console as administrator: sfc /scannow

You might even need to reinstall Windows, it’s hard to say at this point…

I am not sure if I trust myself enough to mess with the registry, don’t want to accidentally mess up anything. I don’t think this is worth re installing windows for either?
I wish they would give us an option to change whether it opens browser or stays in game or at least force it to run on a specific browser instead of ‘system default’ if the systems are this stupid.
