Hyperlinks (URLs) do not open anymore in Firefox, but do so in other browsers. I have tried many really complicated suggestions and cannot make it work. I am ready to give up.

To Dropa: Firefox has always been my default browser. When hyperlinks stopped opening I tried Explorer, Edge and Chrome and the links opened in them all. To Terry: I most often open links from Word or PDF documents.I can still open links from various websites.
