Step 2: Under 'Web Browser' click 'Microsoft Edge' --> select Google Chrome --> select 'Switch anyway'
This will enable the default browser to be Google Chrome, which is compatible with most of the Lindenwood Application
Change to Google Chrome - unless you use Cams or Priam then select Internet Explorer for Default App and use Google manually for all Lindenwood website activity...
