After uninstalling Google Chrome links in e-mail don't work any more

more options

I have Firefox on my computer. I wanted to try out Chrome. After uninstalling Chrome and reinstating Firefox as my default browser, several things don't work properly, especially links in emails. I tried suggested solution of changing registry key for .html from ChromeHTML to htmlfile or FirefoxHTML but neither works. I just want to be able to click the link and open up the relevant web page.

As someone else has this problem I reply to my own question. Only uninstallling and reinstalling Firefox cures the problem.
