    Yes, it shows Firefox when you select the program for HTM and HTML (as you showed on your screen shot above). The issue is that even then it will not show up as the Default for the browser program in Windows 10 - odd, really. It would be nice if under "default apps," you had an option to "look for another app on this PC" as opposed for looking for apps online which means nothing in this case.

    Maybe, just maybe the variants to Firefox are messing with Windows and what is displays. I would delete all three Firefox, and I can't remember the other two you have, and then re-install FF and see if it shows as program for default.

    As to emails, there is a file type .url in the list. It should be set to Internet Browser, not a browser, just Internet browser. Then mail will follow the browser default, or it should.
