How to set Firefox to be the default / standard program?

Postby Dirki » 10 May 2016, 08:57

How can one set to be Firefox the default / standard program in Win 10? So when I any program opens a file in a browser Firefox it shall be opened in Firefox.

Until to some days ago it worked. Although I uninstalled an installed Firefox, there opens a window of a Firefox obviously not being the LiberKey Firefox.

I resetted the standard in Win 10, now that Microsoft Edge always opens. The Firefox shown hiere

does not appear to be the LiberKey Firefox, setting it it opens a Firefox window without any of my settings, tool bars, etc.

Setting the LiberKey associations does not help: http://i.imgur.com/N5DTK5O.png

How could I make the LiberKey Firefox the default browser again?

And, after resetting to the default programs all of the other programs set in LiberKey to open with the LiberKey programs open with Win programs now.

Hello.

Try this : Right click on KFA icon when it's launch then Confiugure association. After,
in "Associations configuration", you can force the behavior.
Choose your extension >> Advanced >> "Replace the current actions for this type of files" and "By Default" then OK

There are lots of issues under Win10 due to association behavior changes on it.
KFA has not been updated yet to support those changes

I understand, so how could I correct it, make it work for me now?

No way sorry, just wait for Key File Assoc (KFA) changes, but not for a while...

Many thanks.

That does not sound very good.

Can one export the file associations (of LiberKey) to a file?

Why ?
You can find it there : Liberkey\LiberKeyTools\KeyFileAssoc\KeyFileAssoc.xml

Thank you.

May be there is a way to import the associations to Windows (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/lib ... 25038.aspx)
