If you’re like most people, your default browser is Mozilla Firefox. But if you’re using Windows 10, Microsoft has made it difficult to change. In this article, we’ll show you how to set Firefox as the default browser on Windows 10. First, open the Start menu and search for “Firefox.” When Firefox appears in the results, click on it. Next, click on the “Options” button in the upper-right corner of the window. Now, under “Default Web Browser,” click on “Mozilla Firefox.” If you want to keep Internet Explorer as your default browser, click on “Internet Explorer” instead. (You can also change this setting at any time by clicking on the “Change Default” button.) Finally, make sure that Firefox is your default browser by clicking on the “Set As Default” button. ..
If you recently bought a new PC or just want to switch to Firefox from another browser, like Microsoft Edge or Chrome, you can easily set it as the default. Follow the steps below to set Mozilla Firefox as your default browser on Windows 10.
First, download and install Firefox for Windows. If it isn’t installed on your device, you won’t be able to set it as the default browser.
