Changing the default web browser from x-www-browser

I have installed the min web browser, and also changed the path of my Browser under Preferences->Openbox->Menue in the Execute feld to /usr/bin/min. But still many applications (for example Pythons Jupyter notebook) search for x-www-browser and complain that its not found, if i have firefox-esr uninstalled. How can i set /usr/bin/min to be my default browser for all the things i want to do with a browser?

Thanks

Menu --> System --> Edit Debian Alternatives -- > x-www-browser,
then select the browser of your choice. If it is not in the debian alternatives list, then add the path to the binary.
