K-Meleon Web Browser Forum
Fisrt of all I allready tried 2 things:
1)This reg file -> Set K-Meleon as default in Vista
2)Reading the FAQ, but the instructions there are for XP, cause there is no File Type bar in Folder Options... in Vista.
I tried going to Control Panel -> default Programs -> Associate File Type or Protocol with a Program, but when going to protocols FTP,HTTP and HTTPS only choices there, are firefox and IE, you can't even browse to another programm, there is no option!
Thanx in advance
edit://I don't get it actually, the reg file gives all the good info! K-Meleon should at least appear in Default Programs

A ha my green friends! I managed!
The reg file is Ok, but you still need sth to do.
After you Merge the reg file, you have to go to Start -> Control Panel -> Default Programs -> Set program access and computer defaults -> Custom and choose from there K-Meleon as default web browser!
Now you have to go to Start -> Control Panel -> Default Programs -> Set your default programs.
You'll find out that NOW K-Meleon is listed, but it still has NONE of its defaults.
So you set it as default program and voila, K-Meleon is your default browser!
I don't know if this was some kind of "glitch" only for my system, but I hope the thread will help someone in the future
