Same here on 17713, only works when Edge is default browser. Some background https://github.com/sindresorhus/opn/issues/95#issuecomment-393469429

Same here 😦 Probably is related to the last update of W10 Insider… I’m using build 17692 btw.

okay, I think, all of you using Windows Insider Version? We are using OPN npm library to open a browser. This saw an issue request on OPN with the same title. https://github.com/sindresorhus/opn/issues/95

I don’t think it’s a windows problem. I have no problem opening the chrome through vscode Task command, works like a charm. I’m using this code: { "taskName": "Open in Chrome", "isBuildCommand": true, "command": "Chrome", "windows": { "command": "C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Chrome/Application/chrome.exe" }, "args": [ "http://localhost:5500/${relativeFile}" ] }

I got this from @RickStrahl’s blog

Okay, basically same as #120 #65

Set "liveServer.settings.CustomBrowser":"chrome"
