Why doesn't Firefox appear as available brower app in Windows 10?
I'm trying to make Firefox my default browser in Windows 10. But only Edge and IE are listed as available for the default Web Browser. If I look at the full list of 'apps' it does show Firefox.

How was your firefox installed?
Hello dathomas49,
Would you do this please :
First go to Windows Settings => Apps and choose 'Allow all apps'.
Then uninstall and reinstall Firefox to see if that will make Firefox appear as app.
Does that work ?
I may have been unclear.
Firefox DOES appear in the list of apps shown under “Apps & features” and “Allow apps from anywhere” is set.
But if I go to “Default apps” → “Web browser” THAT only shows Edge and IE as available options. (Plus “Look for an app in the Store”, of course)
I downloaded “Firefox installer.exe” from the Mozilla website. I right-clicked on the program and chose “Run as administrator”
When you're in Windows Settings => Default Apps, click om either browser that is listed there, and you will get a dropdown that includes Firefox - click on it ....
See this article : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/make-firefox-your-default-browser
Does that work ?
NO. That does not work. I do that and ONLY see Edge and IE.

Weird ....
When you go to Windows Control Panel => Default Programs - is Firefox listed there ?
If not, would you please download Firefox from here :

(and choose your preferred laguage)
