Prevent Microsoft Edge from opening

When using Firefox and clicking on a link oftentimes instead of the link opening in Firefox it opens Microsoft Edge. I have Firefox set as my default browser. Other than uninstalling Microsoft Edge is there any other solution to this problem? My OS is Windows 11 Pro.

Hi, usually this problem is with links outside of Firefox, for example, in Microsoft Office applications, Acrobat, etc. Normally, those are governed by your default browser setting, but especially for Outlook, check this article: Setting Firefox as the default browser does not work - What to do.

If there is a problem with links inside Firefox, are they links to PDFs or other types of content other than regular web pages? You can check whether Edge is specified as the program to use for opening those content types over on the Settings page. See: Manage file types and download actions in Firefox.

Any progress so far?
