I have installed Chrome in Ubuntu 16.04 and selected it as my default browser then restarted the computer. But I am still seeing Firefox in the Launcher and not chrome.   How can I change this, please?

After sudo apt-get install awesome awesome-extra and logging into it (with no previous configuration that I know of), there's no menu entry for Firefox. All my other stuff is there - Mutt, Meld, jEdit, BOINC, etc., only Firefox is missing. I have no ~/.config/awesome/ directory, so there should be no override in place.

Where are the user profile directories of Google Chrome located in? It may seem like a very simple question, but I couldn't find it. I checked inside %APPDATA%, but there were noting relevant there. My OS is Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1.

I had to remove Chrome to have enough space to upgrade from 16.10 to 17.04.  I downloaded the latest version from Google.  But when it opens in the Ubuntu Software Manager, and I click on "Install", nothing happens.

I'm trying to locate where the Ubuntu Software Center is to choose as default for handling APT links in Firefox.  I can click on the links, and I get the pop-up, but Ubuntu Software Center is not there.  I tried to choose an application through Firefox's settings and through the pop-up, but I don't know the path.  As you can see by my screen shot for the pop-up I chose the wrong one as that doesn't work.  What is the correct path I need to select the correct file?  EDIT - I added a fourth screen shot.  I don't have it in that location.  This is what I have.  My view is in ABC order, and it's showing hidden files.

This browser window showing    appears after I installed then uninstalled the Pantheon environment:  Originally this occurred after (and possibly before) ppa-purging the PPA only when not connected to the internet - a window without a title that the window manager would ignore would appear, then dissapear. The grep process in the background was me searching the root of the system for clues to the problem -  I found that some settings in gconf had been left which were causing a additional issue with the elementary theme set as default, which I then apt-get auotremoved)   After apt-get autoremoving the elementary packages it opens properly in a web browser  It seems to appear randomly (in a random web browser - I have Firefox, Chromium and Chrome installed - this started happening before installing Chrome), and after unlocking the screen, connecting to the internet etc. I think the URL it is pointing to is  which then redirects to    I installed it as shown , and then removed the PPAs using ppa-purge, and then used apt-get autoremove on any remaining bits.  I know this a third-party PPA, but I don't think these issues should occur after removing it. It also causes issues with the Unity desktop as shown . This feels uncomfortably like the things you get with adware/freeware/malware on windows..  Using Ubuntu 14.04 64bit    EDIT: By looking at htop I have found that the process is started as root the run as the active user (gamer) using su:           I have not a clue what point this has apart to encourage the rapid removal of everything relevant to elementaryOS...

Ubuntu 17.10 (xorg), GNOME 3.26.2, Firefox 58.0 (64 bit).    I have a few Firefox profiles setup.  When I run each profile, I would like it to be a separate icon on the dock.  How do I make that happen?  Right now what happens is that they are all grouped in the standard Firefox icon.

One thing that's really bugged me since switching to Chrome is that Ctrl + F behaves slightly differently from Firefox.  In Firefox, if you have text highlighted and hit Ctrl + F, it'll start finding with that text.  Is there any way of getting Chrome to do this?

I don't like the auto hide launcher for it is too annoying for me. The launcher stays hidden and to reveal it, the mouse pointer has to be moved to the default hot spot. I'd instead like to have the hide to dodge windows previously available in Ubuntu 11.10. How do I change back to this behaviour?

I have the following browsers on my phone:   stock Dolphin Mini Opera Mobile Firefox   I don't want to set a catch-all default because some pages render better on some browsers than on others.  When I click on a link on a non-browser app (e.g. google search or google reader) it asks me which browser to choose (as expected).  Can I set a default browser for some pages and a different default for others?

I installed the latest version of Ubuntu (17.10) , but the problem is, I can't find the menu bars of applications in the GNOME panel. For instance, the Chrome menu bar doesn't appear on the panel like in Ubuntu 17.04 and earlier versions.

Safari is my default browser, and I like it that way. But I want to open Google URLs (Google Docs, YouTube, etc.) in Chrome by default, e.g., when I click on a link in Mail. Is there a system-level way to set the default browser for a sub-set of domains?

How do I reassign the keyboard shortcuts for Firefox? I want to use ctrl+right/left to switch tabs. Is there a plugin for this, if Firefox doesn’t natively support this?

On a relatively new installation, Thunar has become the default file browser simply by using it.   While I can open Nautilus easily enough, I'd rather it remained as the default file browser(especially when I choose to view files in dual pane).  How can I change my default file manager?

I am using firefox developer edition.  I have it configured with several programs that give it a dark theme.  My biggest problem with it is that because my eyes adjust to the screen being dark, the flash of unstyled content hurts my eyes whenever I open a web page.  Currently what I have done is to enable the dark theme, which does a good job taking care of the tab and url bar.  For the pages that are protected, I use ShadowFox to color them dark as well.  I then configured an addon called Dark Background and Light Text to color all of the webpages.  I have tried editing the display foreground and background color in about:config.  I have the developer theme set to dark.  Shadowfox takes care of editing the userChrome file.    Now my biggest problem is with websites like google.  With google, I get the original light colors for about a full second before the custom colors appear.  Most sites are not that bad, but all follow the same trend, showing light backgrounds before the dark ones.  Editing the display colors in about:config helped with some sites, but did not affect google at all.  I am wondering if there is any sort of configuration I can do to fix the fouc. I am perfectly willing to go as far as modifying the base colors in the source code if I need to.  I have not been able to find anything useful on the internet.  Is there anything I am able to do about this? Maybe change the color values in the source code?
