Won't let me select searchwithmybrowser.exe

Instead the dialog simply states, "Keep using Edge, or search the store."

Executed as admin? Restarted PC?

It seems you made a mistake while installing.

You need to specify the whole file path. So you need to enter, for example, C:\Files\SearchWithMyBrowser.exe and not C:\Files.

Please try and specify the whole path. A future version the installer won't ask you to move it and such, it'll just do it by itself. But it isn't really stable for now.

I got the same problem. What I entered in the install.cmd was "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"

@Seyoum You need to enter the path to SearchWithMyBrowser.exe, not your browser.

Sorry for the confusion, I'll rework the install script to make it easier to install.

Work on the new build install script is progressing well!

This one will be based on PowerShell, use the system browse dialog, and have a much cleaner implementation (the old is a mess)

When I extracted the file, two required files did not show up the SearchWithMyBrowser application and .pdb. The .cs file showed up though.

@rmessick You have to build them ;) Run make.cmd to do so.

I missed the part where you need to include the executable in the file path.
So if you put the files in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Search With My Browser" you need to answer "C:\Program Files (x86)\Search With My Browser\SearchWithMyBrowser.exe" at the prompt.

Exactly! This won't be an issue once the new installer is published

Fixed by the new installer
