Right-click on the shortcut and check its properties. Is Firefox set as the default?

FredMcD,

Thank you, however they are not shortcuts. Hyperlinks in Excel that lost the link after the last Firefox update. I get the error message, then the site opens in exploder/Edge.

Do the links go to Microsoft pages? Many of them default to Microsoft browsers.
