CoreImage - How to switch your default web browser


Introduction

HITS configured your CoreImage device to set your default web browser to Microsoft Edge when you first sign into Windows.

However, if you want to set it to Chrome or you are experiencing an issue related to your default web browser not being configured correctly, you can manually set it using the instructions below.  Note that these instructions do not apply to Kiosk-mode devices.
