Description lxlyons 2012-07-11 13:17:51 UTC

Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build EaselCSS-298-on-20120709)
Java: 1.7.0; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 21.0-b17
System: Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64; Cp1252; en_US (nb)
JavaFX: 2.2 beta build 16

NB is unable to automatically find my Chrome installation; I must always add it manually.  Note that my default browser is Firefox (it has not problems finding Firefox and IE).

The executable is here:

C:\Users\lxlyons.ST-USERS\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe

This seems to be system-dependent, it works fine for me; my Chrome is installed in an analogous location: C:\Users\pjiricka\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe
and I also use Windows 7. 

Assigning to Denis who implemented this feature - Denis, any ideas? Thanks.

BTW, I remember Jan Stola complained about this problem as well.
