I dislike Chromonium but I do like having a sandbox browser for testing web applications. I like firefox developer edition more I know there's a way to actually change use whatever browser I like but I do love having it sandbox. and as of the moment I haven't found a way to change it.

Hi Edwin, You cannot change the Burp embedded browser - it is using a version of Chromium and this is hard-coded within Burp itself. If you wish to use a different browser then you would, as you have mentioned, need to configure the use of an external browser.
