Chrome Open Certain File Types Automatically

Post by luvmystang »

I am having a new issue with SAP that has been working fine within PWB published browser.
Today, whenever users are trying to launch they are getting a "Save File" dialog box and then the file is saved but not launched.
If I duplicate this behavior in full blown Chrome browser, I get the File download window in the bottom of the browser and then I have the option to select "Always open files of this type". Then in the Chrome Advanced Settings Download section, I see where it has added that file type association is made. I can then, within Chrome, successfully launch the file without getting the prompt any longer.

Is there a way to make this work within the PWB published browser?

You can use the [Security]CheckExecuteAccess=True to force PWB open file in the associated application and prevent downloading other files.
