   I would start looking at .desktop files, to see if there is

   As for saving web pages, you're at the mercy of the web site on that.   
   The web site can interfere with a "Web Page - Complete" save attempt.   
      
   Web pages which use Ajax (push) for output, may not "save" as such.   
      
   In the era of AI scraping, expect web sites to be all the more prickly   
   about anything other than viewing as an option.
