This is a tool that will set the default browser for the current user on a macOS device.
/opt/macadmins/bin/default-browser --identifier com.google.chromeTo set other browsers as the default, use the following identifiers:
- Google Chrome (the default if no identifier is passed):
com.google.chrome - Safari:
com.apple.safari - Firefox:
org.mozilla.firefox - MS Edge:
com.microsoft.edgemac
If System Settings doesn't show all sections correctly after running, this tool, restart the machine. This is likely a timing issue with Launch Services, but we haven't reproduced it consistently. If you see that a restart doesn't fix the issue, you way wish to use the ---no-rebuild-launchservices flag. This will mean that you need to reboot after running the tool.
