Prevent installers from opening the default browser

[pcslookout]

For example Revo Uninstaller opens the web browser after installing. How do I prevent this ?

Not the answer your looking for but my workaround is to use the paid version of Sandboxie to force all browsers to run sandboxed. I also have sandbox rules on what can run and have internet access in that sandbox.

Does it want you to register their software?

No it is just a advertisement. With like saying thanks for installing Revo Installer for example.

I found that yesterday but couldn't find the options in Comodo firewall to do it. 🙁

I am on Windows 10.

This part I don't follow

A quick tutorial on how to reach that filter window within comodo is ->main menu ->defense->advanced->computer security policy->"find all applications header entry"->click edit->click "access rights"->add firefox or iexplore exefiles into blocked tab.

I am trying to find out if GlassWire Firewall Basic with ask to connect enabled will block this but I doubt it.

Outpost couldn't block it.

Such things are sometimes the price of using a free version. The sandbox is a good plan.

I am using Revo Uninstaller Pro though.
