Re: Firefox insists to be default !?




Me too. Firefox 95.0.2 in Mate fully updated. I have had this problem before but it always sorted itself out later.

Hi all,

After the recent upgrade of Firefox (and Thunderbird) in oldoldstable (Mate desktop), Firefox always asks me to be default browser, even though I have set it as default in Mate's default applications, and respond to that asking by click on 'dont ask me again'.

Furthermore, Thunderbird is also set as a default email client. However, if I click on a weblink in Thunderbird mail, another Thunderbird session opens (instead opening Firefox). And when I close both software, and return to Mate control panel to check again for default applications ... voila ... Thunderbird seems as magically selected for both mail client and web browser there!

How to prevent that misbehaviour? All worked well with previous versions of Firefox and Thunderbird. What went wrong with new versions?
