Comment #25 on issue 3126 by kuchhal: Open link in live messenger will launch chrome.exe but chrome window cannot show http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=3126
Hmm.. still no luck in understanding the problem. The registry entries are certainyl not right but I am not sure why it is failing only for you. Can you please try some additional steps? - If you comfortable editing registry, can you find this key in the registry: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\http\shell\open\command] @="C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" -nohome and edit its value to be [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\http\shell\open\command] @="C:\Users\ABC\AppData\Local\Chromium\Application\chrome.exe" -- "%1" Make sure you change back ABC in the above path to the right value. Now try clicking a http link in live messenger. if you are not comfortable editing registry, ignore this step. - Download an even newer build of Chromium from here - http://build.chromium.org/buildbot/snapshots/chromium-rel-xp/9683/mini_installer.exe - which has the fix I made today for other default browser related problems. Try this build on XP. - If still doesn't work please again get the three files as described in earlier post and post them here. Make sure you get these files from your XP machine. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
