It looks like the error occured when the browser icons were extracted from your browsers (because those icons are missing in your screenshot).

1. Could you please tell us which browsers you have installed and their exact version numbers?

2. Did you use the browser/proxy before?

3. Did you select the Chrome tab manually after opening that window or was is directly shown like that?

1. i only have Edge installed, Version is
   Microsoft Edge 38.14393.0.0
   Microsoft EdgeHTML 14.14393
   (Just remembered i removed IE, might this be the cause?)

2. the last time i used it was on a Windows 7 machine a while ago.

3. it was selected like that, also i cant select anything else.

i just reinstalled IE, now the error is gone, i guess IE is needed for NSM to set Proxy settings for windows.

Thank you for your helpful observation with the missing IE.
To be honest, we have never thought about the constellation where someone would remove IE from their system. Did you remove it using the “Turn Windows features on or off” dialog or somehow differently?
We'll try to reproduce the problem with the new information. Then we can tell if the error is simply because of some minor details (like the icon) or if an important part of the API is missing by uninstalling IE.
If it's just a minor detail, we'll fix this for the next release, so the Browser/Proxy dialog works without IE.

Yes i had removed it in the "Turn Windows features on or off" dialog.
Not that it really matters to me that IE is there, i just removed it since i never use it.

We're going to implement a solution for the next version, allowing to use the Browser/Proxy feature without IE installed on the system.
