Every time I'm in my Windchill I try to open a part through CREO view it opens with my chrome browser, would it be possible to leave the EDGE browser as the default? I've already set it as the default in Windows and nothing.

Set config.pro option windows_browser_type as desired : ie_browser, mozilla_based_browser or chromium_browser

 

But this shows that Edge is not supported

  • Creo Parametric and Windchill Workgroup Manager:
    • Not available as embedded browser
      • Due to limitation from Microsoft Edge not allowing embedding in 3rd party applications
      • PTC will certify as embedded browser for Creo Parametric and Windchill Workgroup Manager, once embedding is made available

Sorry I am missing something here. Are you in Windchill edge browser and try to open CAD through creo view ?
