I need to set 100 computer to have Chrome as their default browser.

This question has been out there for years and I'm yet to find a proper answer. Please if anyone can help me/us!?

I don't mean changing default app for file extensions, I mean actually changing the default app in the default app list.

I also don't mean manually going to each computer, I have 100 to do and users who move around. SURELY surely surely surely there is a way to do this!? Why does Windows insist on being so hard to manage, it's crazy.

Thanks to anyone who offers help.

    Hi ,

    Based on my understanding, you want to set default web browser for 100 computers. Is that right? Please feel free to let me know if I have any misunderstanding.

    Are those machines domain-joined? If yes, the following article talking about how to set Chrome as the default browser on domain-joined computers running Windows 10, you can have a look:

    Make Chrome default browser (Windows 10)
