Re: Change browser in MacOS

Dave,

Unfortunately it does not stick.
I’ve noticed that the org.pgadmin.pgadmin4.plist file is overwritten (probabaly once a day) without the <key>Browser Command</key>; the Browser Command is still visible in the Configure… window (as long as the pgadmin server is running). I think this overwriting does only occur when there is no pgadmin-window actually running in a Browser.

Regards,

P. De Visschere
