"Open With" other browsers question
If I right click on a page and choose "Open With" it lists the other browsers installed on my PC: -
But why is there a dividing line between Google Chrome and the 3 other browsers? It's not an issue or anything, I was just wondering why it's there. It doesn't denote the most recent browser I've selected, as Google Chrome is always at the top.
That would make sense, but Opera is already my default browser and always has been.
I uninstalled Chrome and then Firefox appeared as the browser above the separating line. I then reinstalled Chrome, but Firefox remains the browser listed above the line. I've also just tried making Chrome the default browser, then making Opera the default again in case that resets it, but Firefox is still listed above the line.

Opera is my default browser and appears above the line.
Double-click on an HTML file in Windows Explorer and see which browser opens.
In Preferences, Programs, enable "Check if Opera is default browser on startup."
Then restart Opera.

Set it the default for all things Opera can handle.
