It is only relatively recently that opening Webroot became a problem. I remember when it opened in the browser I was using at the time.tNow he only way I can open it in Firefox is to login from the internet. when I open Webroot it always defauts to Microsoft Edge, I find that opening it in Edge is frustrating, inconvenient and extremely irritating. How can I get Webroot to open in my preferred browser.
 
I am using the up-to-date version of Webroot Secure Anywhere.
