Description:
On Win 8.1, when I try to run Live Preview before I've installed Chrome, I get Error Launching Browser (error 1). I would expect the error message to say Chrome is not installed. There is a link to "Troubleshooting Live Development connection errors": https://github.com/adobe/brackets/wiki/Troubleshooting#wiki-livedev, but that page doesn't mention anything about "error 1". That page also doesn't clearly say that you need Chrome for Live Preview to work. The one-time Live Preview dialog does say you need Chrome, but that's only a one-time dialog and maybe some users need to see this again in the troubleshooting page.

Repro using Brackets Sprint 33 10187 on Win 8.1.
Repro steps:
- I was testing on Win 8.1 (not sure if it repros on other OS's).
- Chrome was not installed yet.
- Open index.html from Getting Started and run Live Preview.
Actual results:
Error message appears: Error Launching Browser. "An error occurred when launching the browser. (error 1) For more information, see "Troubleshooting Live Development connection errors": https://github.com/adobe/brackets/wiki/Troubleshooting#wiki-livedev, but that page doesn't mention anything about "error 1".

Expected results:
Error message says Chrome is not installed.
If that's not possible, then https://github.com/adobe/brackets/wiki/Troubleshooting#wiki-livedev should mention "error 1" and say you need Chrome.
Also, the punctuation of the error message seems strange. I think it should be something like this:
"An error occurred when launching the browser (error 1). For more information..."
Workaround:
Figure out on your own that you need Chrome installed.
