• How can I make Firefox the default browser in a non-administrative account in Windows XP, where clicking to do has no effect?

  I have two accounts for myself on my PC under Windows XP. In the administrative account, Firefox is already the default browser that appears when I double-click an HTML file, etc. Firefox knows that it is the default browser.

  In my other account, whenever I start Firefox, it tells me that this isn't the default browser. By clicking here to make the value by default, or in the options, does nothing.

  When I go to Set Program Access and defaults in the administrative account, 'use my current browser' is selected. Mozilla Firefox is not listed as an option. In my nonadministrator account, the Control Panel Add / Remove programs can be used. He says I don't have permission.

  To check in the other account, you would have to temporarily give him administrator permissions.

• How can you make Firefox the default browser when the normal route does not work?

  Im trying entirely chrome once a friend showed how my firefox got his act together. However I can't for the life of me set it as default browser. I tried the 'make firefox the default browser' button in firefox, making that opens the windows default programs Panel. Whenever I try to use the Panel she simply sets the Protocol http for every night, which is not yet installed! ( http://puu.sh/2vJHM ) I think that a possible solution would be to change the registry manually, but I don't know where to start.

  Thank you for your help, but I managed to fix it by myself. The registry key for the associations of html and URLs of firefox have been corrupted so I scoured their in regedit (at HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\FirefoxHTML and HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\FirefoxURL) and them deleted entirely, then redid them by clicking on the make default firefox button in the options.

• Impossible to make Firefox my default browser in Windows 10.

  I've replaced Firefox Web browser settings in Windows 10. I start Firefox and make it my default browser. When I search websites in Firefox, it does nothing. I tried with Google, Bing, Yahoo - nothing happens. If I go back to Windows 10 settings and change for Microsoft Edge, he surfed immediately with Bing. I've done 100 times and it does the same thing. Very frustrating!

  Said Chris_ilias

  Have you tried other browsers, such as Google Chrome or Internet Explorer? (See How to open Internet Explorer in Windows 10). If only Microsoft Edge can access the websites, I think that it is not a matter of Firefox and you can get better help on a Windows forum.

  Here's a thread from a forum of 10 Windows on a similar problem (only sites Microsoft consulted Edge, other browsers do not have) which was resolved by resetting your network card by entering netsh winsock reset at the command with administrator privileges prompt and then restart Windows:

  You are welcome and thanks for posting back with the result. I'll mark this as the solution.
