Sourcetree opens remote in Microsoft Edge (instead of default browser)

[gilgen-zt]

When I click on the Remote button (in a repo in Sourcetree 3.4.17 for Windows) to open the remote repo in the internet browser, Sourcetree opens it with Microsoft Edge instead of my default internet browser.

It was not always like this. Is there any setting, where I can change that (couldn't find any so far)?

@gilgen-zt have you tried reviewing the default browser setting and making sure that all file types are pointing to your default browser?

Setting of default browser did not help.

But as this topic already is some months old, I'm not sure any more if I did  any canges of setting for the file types or if I reinstalled Sourcetree.

But at the moment it ist working.

@gilgen-zt What version are you on?

[gilgen-zt]

Windows 3.4.19 (latest version)

@gilgen-zt I found an older bug for 3.2 but the fix was to update.  If you are on the latest version then that will not help unless you just reinstalled.  

On another similar issue one user did this: If you go to Settings, then Remotes. Right click on your repository path and then hit Edit. Then just hit OK (or change it if it's wrong). That was enough to make it work for me and must retrigger a save of some kind. 

Don't know if either of those will work for you.

@Brant Schroeder thank you for your solutions. This may help other when they search for this problem.

But for me it is already solved (without knowing exactly what helped)
