Hello!
If Chrome itself has not asked you to be the default browser itself, have you tried Menu > Settings > Settings Manager > Preferred Applications to change the default browser to Chrome? If that fails, if you remove Firefox, Chrome should then become the default browser.
It took Microsoft roughly fifteen years to get Windows from its humble beginnings to XP. Ubuntu has been in active development for over a decade, and has only recently became anything resembling user-friendly. Linux Mint is just now going into its 17th edition. By comparison, Linux Lite has been around for, what, two years or so now?
Unlike Ubuntu, LL is not developed and supported by people with deep pockets. Given the wide variety of hardware out there, and the fact that many manufacturers will not support their devices in Linux, I, for one, am surprised that everything works as well in Linux as it does.
At this moment, NO Linux OS functions EXACTLY like XP. That would probably be considered copyright infringement. This distro just happens to be the one that comes closest to using layman's terms and scripting to make everything as easy as possible for the uninitiated. After all, you can't beat the price.
As lessons are learned and user ideas implemented, things WILL get better. However, it IS a process...

A gun in your hand is worth more than a whole police force on the phone.
