I'm using Manjaro. Firefox is my default browser. Every other part of the OS opens links in Firefox as it should be. Thunderbird opens web links in Chromium. I've seen other answers here say to change the setting in Preferences->General->Files and Attachments, but I have no setting for http(s) links there—only PDF documents. How can I get Thunderbird to respect my choice of default browser?

If you have run through the check via Firefox regarding set as default and it is ok. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/make-firefox-your-default-browser

If you have checked the Preferences->General->Files and Attachments and there are no settings for http(s) links

then check the following:

  • Preferences->General
  • scroll to bottom and click on 'Config Editor'
  • Accept the friendly warning :)

Look for the following preferences and if they are set up as 'False' then toggle them to say 'True'

  • network.protocol-handler.warn-external-default
  • network.protocol-handler.warn-external.http
  • network.protocol-handler.warn-external.https
  • network.protocol-handler.warn-external.ftp

Close the advanced preferences/config editor

click on link in email - it may ask what browser to use - select Firefox and check the checkbox to have it remember the setting.
