How to make webbrowser component default to firefox - vb.net

I am making an app that opens up a website using the WebBrowser Control. Thing is, by doing research i found out that the default is IE / Edge. The OS is windows 10 and so the browser is Edge. When the site loads, it spazzes out and doesnt work as it should! On chrome and firefox it works a charm.
I need a way to change the default browser from Edge to Firefox?
I did my research and found different solutions but they dont work for me. The one i thought would work best is located here: http://thebot.net/threads/vb-net-how-to-make-a-firefox-webbrowser.142359/
When doing so, i would receive an error stating down the lines.. Version issue? <-- Cant remember exact error. But didnt work.
I then tried the Browse With.. idea but i cant locate this option.. Anywhere!
Please supply as much information to try get this to work.
Thanks!

Google Colab running any cell received javascript related errors

Received a browser white popup saying when executing any cells:
Error
Could not load the JavaScript files needed to display output.
This is probably because your Google account login access has expired or because third-party cookies are not allowed by your browser.
Please reload this page.
DETAILS
I have tried re-login and restarted runtime, and no help. Strange is another notebook is fine.
OK
Update: Just restarting browser and relaunched everything seemed to "fix" this.
For those like me who tried all the given solutions but with no use ,the magic thing that worked for me in the end was to open colab using a vpn!
Restart browser. If someone find a better way, please post.
I got this error on chrome. Every colab notebook I opened had this issue even if it wasn't connected to a runtime.
Restarting the browser didn't help.
Clearing cookies of last 24hours (and restarting my system to be sure!) fixed the issue.
This may be because access to your Google account has expired or because your browser does not allow third-party cookies.
Check your task manager on your laptop and see how full the disk is.
Mine was 100% so I searched “disk cleanup” on my Windows computer And got rid of temporary files and files downloaded from internet, etc. also clear cache and cookies on whatever browser you’re doing. And if you have synced your google chrome and Microsoft edge specifications as the same(cookies, extensions, etc) then get rid of both cache and other stuff on them as well. Also check 3rd party cookies
Using vpn solved this problem for me
The library I'm using by default prints a large amount of info, which caused this problem for me. Restart the browser only works if it doesn't print that much again. Disabling the verbose info printing solved the problem for me.
I found when the notebook is heavy it is throwing up this error. For example there were so many plots in my notebook, that slowed it down and caused this problem. Also make sure you don't have multiple notebooks opened.
Try Cleaning your trash/recycle-bin & temp files.
That worked out for me.
Disabling some AdBlock extensions works for me.

Google Signin with IE11 & Edge not working

I'm trying to add Google Signin to our login page. I've followed the code supplied by Google, as well as a GitHub project that I used for code example. Both work perfect on Chrome, FireFox, Safari, but I can't get it to work on IE11 or Edge.
The GitHub project is at https://github.com/googleplus/gplus-quickstart-javascript. This project uses Google's newer apis.google.com, however I've also tried plus.google.com as suggested in another post. Neither work.
I added a data-onfailure function to the button, and get an error "popup_blocked_by_browser" even though the popup blocker is turned off in the browser. Even though I get this popup error, I do get a popup that asks which Google account to use, but when I choose one, I get the "The webpage your are viewing is trying to close the window" message. If I choose Yes, the window closes, but I don't get logged in.
Anyone have any advice for getting this to work in IE or Edge?
I ran into this problem on IE 11 with Windows 10.
I fixed it and then it happened again after receiving Windows Updates - annoying!
Here is what fixed it for me; it was an IE Setting.
Go to:
IE -> Internet Options -> Security
Check "Apply" and then "OK" To exit.

Finally, restart IE.

IE11 - Developer Tools Network Tab freezes IE

I upgraded IE on my machine and found the upgraded developer tools better. However whenever I select the Network tab, IE hangs or freezes. I can do nothing on it.
Is there some setting that I might be missing to get it to work?
There is an entry in Microsoft Connect database for that. Unfortunately, there is no fix for now...
http://connect.microsoft.com/IE/feedback/details/801628/ie11-developer-tools-network-tab-causes-freeze
My work around is to start IE with just a blank new tab. I turn on Network and then navigate to wherever I need to do my work. So far I've been lock up free when doing this.

sencha touch 2 api docs

I'm currently working on a project with Sencha Touch 2 and was wondering if anyone has a working link of the API docs page.
I've tried accessing http://docs.sencha.com/touch/2-0/#!/api, but I'm constantly getting redirected to: https://www.sencha.com/products/touch/2-0/#!/api and am finally given a 'The page you’re trying to reach could not be found.' error from Sencha Touch's homepage.
Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? I'm seeing the same link given on all my searches and hence I'm starting to get the feeling that this isn't just a faulty link problem, but perhaps something else.
--update--
The missing page error is occurring on Chrome. IE seems to be handling the link OK.
I don't know why you got that strange problem because the link is still Ok for me, maybe you need to clear your browser cache or something else.
But instead of that way, if you've already download and unzip the sencha touch 2 package from here and I think you've already did it, so you just need to open the index.html file in that folder, the API docs are already there :)
I've fixed the error by disabling the KB SSL Enforcer extension in Chrome.
Hope this info. helps others facing the same problem.
The inability to read the docs in chrome was driving me mad for a while.
You have downloaded the sdk right??? just go to your sdk folder and go to docs in your web browser the docs is right there...

How to debug behaviour in IE6/7 which works completely error-free in other browsers

Question is really simple, I am unable to find out what is wrong with this page:
http://www.ezotour.sk/page/poznavacie-zajazdy-taliansko-sicilia.html
I have tried firebug no errors, I have tried chrome with no errors, I have tried IE9 with no errors. Using IETester it will return errors in code but I am not able to find out what it is.
I don't want you to debug my page for me, I need some advice what you use for IE6/7 debugging.
IETester is buggy, don't trust it.
The best way to test across multiple browsers is to create different virtual machine configurations using VMWare.
See: http://civicactions.com/blog/2009/may/24/building_ultimate_cross_browser_testing_system
IE6 is buggy, but not for a long time!
