Firefox.exe -Silent -SetDefaultBrowser
Thanks keytotime, now I remember where I heard it.
Should work for thunderbird with something like
thunderbird.exe -Silent -SetDefaultClient or something.

For Firefox that works great, but the equivalent thunderbird.exe -silent -setdefaultmail leaves a small window open, the batch process is stopped and it does not register as default mail client.

Anyone found a solution for that yet?

Thanks for that, but isn't there anything "not-so-bloody" with hardcoded paths etc?
