Make Yahoo Mail the default email in Windows or your web browser

  2. Click on the Chrome menu icon Settings.
  3. Select Settings.
  4. Click Show advanced settings.
  5. Under "Privacy," click on Content Settings.
  6. In "Drivers," select Allow sites to request that they become default drivers for protocols (recommended).

Configure in Firefox
