Mode: Ask if no rule applies about bt HOT 5 OPEN

I would also like an option like "Ask when no rule matched" in any case.

I used to use BrowserSelect which worked like that: Pop up the option to select a browser for all URLs, but if a rule is found, it will autopick the browser. (I switched away from that tool because it tended to add duplicate copies of each browser in the list when refreshing browsers, which got annoying after it happened a few times.)

Although now I decided to try using the "Also open on" feature in combination with "Ask on conflict" in BrowserTamer. Which does kinda solve my use case, as long as I remember to hold down the keyboard shortcut when clicking on links.

I assume you have tried this and it doesn't work for you?

I like the idea of adding rules that must always trigger the picker!

Yes, when there is no conflict or no rule it just opens the default browser...
And I'm not sure how to make rules that apply to everything - except stuff already handled by other rules...

I also would like to have an option that shows the "Picker" by default (when no rule apply) , and the selecgted browser when one rule matches.
It's not very clear to me what "Conflict" means on "Ask on Conflict" , but I would see very usefull an additional option there like: "Ask when no rule"

I appreciate your feedback, it's very helpful. I agree that "ask on conflict" is not a clear or common option - it only pops up a dialog when there are multiple browsers/profiles that can open a certain URL. I think you're right that I should add another option like you suggested - "Ask when no rule matched". That would make it easier for users to choose the browser/profile they want when there is no rule defined. How does that sound?
