  <title>Change which web browser opens websites by default</title>

  <p>When you click a link to a web page in any application, a web browser will
  automatically open up to that page. However, if you have more than one
  browser installed, the page may not open up in the browser you wanted it to
  open in. To fix this, change the default web browser:</p>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>Open the <gui xref="shell-introduction#activities">Activities</gui> overview and
      start typing <input>Default Applications</input>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Click on <gui>Default Applications</gui> to open the panel.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Choose which web browser you would like to open links by
      changing the <gui>Web</gui> option.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <p>When you open up a different web browser, it might tell you that it’s not
  the default browser any more. If this happens, click the <gui>Cancel</gui>
  button (or similar) so that it does not try to set itself as the default
  browser again.</p>
