Removing duplicate app entries from the default files list

Hi Roger,

There's a possibility that Firefox isn't uninstalled completely on your computer. We suggest that you uninstall it in the
Settings app by following these steps:

• On Start, select that cog icon or Settings.
• Go to Apps and select the program that you want to uninstall.
• Select Uninstall and follow the instructions on the screen.

This will completely remove Firefox from your system and from the Default Apps list. You can also check and save this article that in case you need a guide to

repair or remove programs in Windows 10.

Let us know how it goes and we'll assist you further.

Removing duplicate app entries from the default files list

I removed a program (Firefox) from my system, but when I go to Default Apps and click on the default (now Chrome) browser, Firefox remains in the options list even though I just uninstalled it. I uninstalled Firefox because I was getting multiple entries
for it in the Default Apps list, and intended to remove the remaining duplicate entry. How do I do that?

 

How can I prevent my default brower from being reset to Edge from FireFox?

Hi,

Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

I suggest you to follow the below steps to change the Firefox as default browser and check if it helps.

• Go to “Settings” and click on “System”.
• Under the “Default apps” tab, click on “Set defaults by app”.
• Locate for “Mozilla Firefox” click on it.
• Then click on “Choose defaults for this program” and check all the
  boxes.
• Click on “Save” and then “OK”.
• Then reboot the computer and check settings has been reset or not.
