Replace Microsoft edge with google chrome browser in Windows 11 Preinstall ?

Recommended Posts

So i am just wondering if there is a way to integrate Google chrome into windows preinstall or as a silent installer,
so that post install it is already set as the default browser?
Or so that its already installed ready to set it manually as default browser post windows install.
I'm still using wintoolkit Version 1.7.0.16 and mostly works fine for windows 11 updates ,reg edits, and integrating some addons ( startup cpl etc).

Also integrated a few free tools to turn windows 11 into windows 7 look (Context menus/taskbar/start menu/ and gadgets side bar) so they're already on the desktop post install ready to use.
What i would ideally like is to have Chrome already installed and set as default browser...no one likes Microsoft Edge, at least no one i know.
If anyone has any ideas I'm open to suggestions.
Attached some screen shots of my windows 11 post install.

Hello! Registry modify the set default browser.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Associations\UrlAssociations\https\UserChoice]
“ProgId”=“ChromeHTML”
“Hash”=“xcvfr=”

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Associations\UrlAssociations\http\UserChoice]
“ProgId”=“ChromeHTML”
“Hash”=“cdert”

The windows setup mount the install.wim image and modify Dism.

Example:

Reg add "HKLM\zNTUSER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Associations\UrlAssociations\https\UserChoice" /v "ProgId" /t REG_SZ /d "ChromeHTML" /f

Reg add "HKLM\zNTUSER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Associations\UrlAssociations\http\UserChoice" /v "ProgId" /t REG_SZ /d "ChromeHTML" /f
