I'd like to change my default browser to IE (as that one has most of our internal sites programmed for). But currently, I can only get pgadmin4 to work well with Opera. Is there a way to tell pgAdmin4 to use a different browser apart from the stock one?

With the latest version of pgAdmin4, developers have added copy URL option on right click on tray icon, Download the latest version then right click on pgAdmin4 tray icon which will give you option to Copy URL, once you click that option then open your desired browser and paste the URL and hit Enter. And you are good to go :)

Also, there is an option to run the custom browser command also. In new chrome versions you can run pgAdmin 4 as "native" desktop app. While the pgAdmin v4 web server is running, right click the icon in the Windows System Tray and select Configure... In the Browser Command input add the following:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --app=%URL%

enter image description here

If you want to run in chrome browser window, configure command like this:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" %URL%

Hope this helps.
