Darkwind
Default Chrome browser

My default browser is Chrome. Comp came with Edge installed. If I'm understanding this, when I click the open gang webpage, it's actually opening WE.

Any way to sort this out? I've been just opening the website through Chrome and minimizing the game whenever I want to switch back and forth, but it would be nice to have it use my default browser.

add www.dark-wind.com as a favorite in chrome and don't use the button in the client.

There must be some other option too though because the button opens Chrome for me.

Sorry for necro'ing this topic, but I having the same/similar issue and it is extremely annoying.

Doesn't matter what my default Windows 10 browser is (Chrome, Firefox, Edge), links from the DW client always open in Internet Explorer, which is only meant for legacy URL links.

Who currently has this working correctly? 
How did you do it?

Is any more known about this issue?

Looking for any help -- other than advising to use favourite/shortcut (which is what I already do of course).

I have this issue as well when I'm on Windows.

Works for Linux.

Install Gentoo.

Moved to Bugs Forum, as this feature is not working as intended.

I reinstalled the game, both before the fresh install and currently, Clicking the buttons which should open a webpage open NOTHING. They are just unoperable buttons in the Lobby Client.

Do you have Internet Explorer disabled or uninstalled?

The same thing happened to me when I disabled IE to see if it would open links in Chrome.

You can see if it's disabled in Windows 10 by going to the search bar and typing "features". Then click "Turn Windows features on and off". A window with a bunch of checkboxes should open. There should be a checkbox next to Internet Explorer 11 if it is enabled, or it will be empty if it's disabled.
