To test: ensure that General -> Web browser is set to use external browser -> Default system web browser. Create a new project and create a new html file.

Isn't this a blocker for switching default for using external browser instead of internal one?

Niraj, can you have a look?
I can't reproduce on my Fedora 35 using Firefox configured as external browser.
As it's External browser and not build-in swt widget this is not SWT problem but UI one as this is where integration with External browser is done.
Lars, what do you see on the Web browser preference page? Can you try clicking "Detect" button? Switch between detected browsers and retry?

Can test later today, currently working for a client on Windows on which this also works. I will also update to the latest Ubuntu version 21.10 and see if it works with the new version.

Switch between detected browsers and retry? Use external browser is selected with the option "Default system web browser". Detect does not make any difference. See new screenshot.
If you switch to Chrome does it work?
What is the output of `xdg-mime query default text/html`? Does it work if you call `xdg-open your_file.html`?
(In reply to Alexander Kurtakov from comment #12) > What is the output of `xdg-mime query default text/html`? chromium_chromium.desktop Does it work if > you call `xdg-open your_file.html`? Yes, that works from the command line.
Would you please install firefox and switch to it? If that works issue is with your chromium installation.
Works fine with Chrome and Firefox but not Chromium. So we close this as NOT ECLIPSE?
(In reply to Lars Vogel from comment #15) > Works fine with Chrome and Firefox but not Chromium. So we close this as NOT > ECLIPSE? Most likely yes. I even wonder is Chromium working on your system at all.
