After some tests, I think I have found what is the problem with the default browser under Windows 10 :
As I hate installation in appdata folder, I always launch setups in admin mode and force them (when I can) to install in Program files (and I also take ownership of the Program Files folder, just in case). It works great, but it seems it doesn't allow CentBrowser to change the default browser under Windows 10 (even with admin rights).
How did I see that ? When trying the latest 2.1.9.48/2.1.9.49 and reverting back to 2.0.10.57 (because of this lame "material design"), I didn't pay attention to the installation folder, so it was reinstalled in appdata, and surprisingly, CB was able to change default browser ! As I'm really curious, I removed and reinstalled it again, but in Program Files this time (with admin rights) >> again, I was unable to change the default browser (http and https protocols do not register with CB)
I really don't know if this problem comes from CB or W10...but I really hope you can find a way to fix it
Until then, I manually register http and https protocols to CB.
