Windows 10: Links from discord and facebook messenger open opera not edge. Edge is my default browser.

How do i make all links shared in apps open Edge again?

Unable to Open links in mail, edge is default browser

Unable to Open links in mail, edge is default browser. I have always had them open in edge when I clicked on them, now they say Unable to Open

, I checked that edge is still my default browser.

 

Default Browser Keeps Changing to Edge

Yes, just to confirm again, when I open FireFox before opening any other link/program/app - I get the pop-up to make FireFox my default browser and I check the box and confirm. If I also complete all of Erika's suggestions:

• Choose default apps by file type
• Choose default apps by protocol
• Set defaults by app

Then for THAT session, everything works ok. But when I shutdown and restart, it all reverts to Edge - the default browser and all my selections for default app by file type, default app by protocol and defaults by app..

If I ONLY open FireFox before opening any other link/program/app and make it my default browser, but then click on a link within an Outlook mail - the link will open in Edge.

What confuses me about Erika's sentence: "Set your preferred default browser to skip
Choose default apps by file type." is the part about 'set your preferred default browser to skip' is this a setting within FireFox after making it my default browser? Because I am changing default apps by file type on the Windows Settings
page and choosing http and https to be connected to FireFox instead of Edge.

Regardless, any changes that I make are changed back to Edge after a shutdown or restart and I am completely frustrated by having to reset everything each time I start my computer.

 

Default Browser Keeps Changing to Edge

About a week ago, when I start my computer (from being completely shutdown) - open Outlook email and click on any link in an email, it opens in Edge. Firefox has always been my default browser. If I check my settings, it will show Edge as my default and
I never changed it to that. If I open Firefox before clicking on any links in email, then it asks me if I'd like t make it my default and that will work only for that particular session.

Every time the computer is shut down and restarted, Edge takes over again.

I followed all of the steps as described by Erika above, except for the first suggestion "Set your preferred default browser to skip
Choose default apps by file type." As I mentioned above, I do not understand what this sentence is saying.

I just check the for windows updates, and everything is up-to-date, no updates are pending.

I just want my default browser to stay FireFox after shutdown/restart and not have to go through half a dozen steps every time I want to start using my computer.

I would start another thread, but my problem is the exact same problem as the original poster.
