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!

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:

This last thread of a Windows 10 forum worked. Now, I can get Internet in Firefox, Chrome and Edge. This ended days of frustration. Thanks Firefox for looking. netsh winsock reset to release your adapter. My next step is to uninstall Windows 10. Thank you!

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