Hi!

It sounds like Firefox is set as your default browser, but Edge is still opening certain links. This usually happens because Windows sometimes overrides the default browser for certain protocols or file types. Here’s how to fix it on Windows 11:

Set Firefox as default for all protocols

Go to Settings → Apps → Default apps.

Scroll to Firefox and click it.

Make sure Firefox is set as default for .htm, .html, HTTP, HTTPS and any other web-related file types or protocols.

After make sure you restart your computer!

Hope this helps!
