chrome as default browser in KDE

[Dick Thoms <xpd259@gmail.com>]

Hello,
before I star, I can't use gnome or xfce for technical reasons beyond
the scope this question and I would rather use gnome, but I can't so
Have to use KDE


I've installed chrome as my browser in KDE
and I've been unable to set Chrome as the default

I've tried Settings/Default and set that to google-chrome
and I've tried

update-alternatives --config x-www-browser /usr/bin/google-chrome
and
update-alternatives --set x-www-browser /usr/bin/google-chrome

but nothing seems to work


any tips would be fantastic

regards
Dick
