Hi,

we have 2 citrix servers in the same farm . We want to make firefox the default browser for all of our users.We also want to ignore the settings that they decide themselves influencing the default browser.
Now the citrix forum suggested that i made a gpo that edits the folowing register keys:

HKCR\http\shell\open\command Change the value in the default key to firefox.exe location.
HKCR\http\shell\open\ddeexec Change the value in the default key to Firefox HKCR\https\shell\open\command Change the value in the default key to firefox.exe location.
HKCR\https\shell\open\ddeexec Change the value in the default key to Firefox

so i did that , and all our links now open through firefox.
However we still get the question to make firefox our default browser while it already is defined as default browser since it opens links using firefox.

the 2nd strange thing we encountered is when we open pdf's using firefox , firefox opens but the pdf's won't open untill we make firefox default browser using the provided popup window when we start firefox
i have googled this for days now without a proper answer . i even tried to run the "firefox.exe -silent -setDefaultBrowser" command to fix it on my personal profile without any luck.that's why i am relying on your answer

hi smo, this has also been tried , however these settings will only adjust the settings for the user that is currently logged on , for our entreprise we need this to force it to all our users.

ok, the check browser doesn't pop up anymore, but whenever i try to follow a link in my mail ,i only get the default page from firefox instead of the clicked link is this related to the registry settings? what should i do to fix it? if i manually make it default browser via options-advanced-make ff default then my links open normally , if ie is default in the background then he doesn't open the link but just the default page of my firefox

yes, that is correct, because it is firefox the default browser
