Stardock Launcher minor bug and idea

from GalCiv3 Forums

Just two minor things really.

 

-Can we get the option to also run older Stardock games though the launcher, eg: I have Gal Civ 2. More of a suggestions, its not really a huge thing just thought it might be cool.

-When clicking links in the Launcher it is opening the wrong browser. I have both firefox 64 and 32 bit. But its opening the 32 bit version not the 64 bit version which I usually use. Likewise I have no way to change it to say Chrome or something. Is this a setting I need to set in steam or to change program priority or something out of the launcher? edit: Also if i have a browser open already it will open it in the current open browser (which is fine I guess)

 

Thanks it for now, just thought I would make a post. Not sure if this is the correct forum for feedback.

Regarding the browser, it will open it in the associated app on your computer.  It sounds like 32 bit firefox is associated with http links and that's why it is opening in that.

Thank you :) Im looking for the answer online now. It seems that the file association in control panel cant distinguish between 32/64 bit in the options just showing "Firefox". Im guessing mozilla just assumes you will only have one or the other installed lol. But ill work it out :P!

 

Thanks again for the reply :)

 

Edit: I posted this on r/firefox and got the solution for anyone who may come across this in the future and is curious for a solution :)

"Try going to Preferences in the General tab and in the top 3-4 lines I think look to see if it says it's default or if there's a button to set it as default and push that.

Do this for the 64 bit version."
