Since updating to Firefox 24, the pinned taskbar links that I have added to the Firefox launcher no longer work. I am getting a popup that reads:

"Unable to open this Internet Shortcut. The protocol "FirefoxURL" does not have a registered program."

Firefox 24, Windows 7 x64.

Firefox 24 removed a registry key needed to open the Pinned sites on the Firefox Jump List on the Windows 7 Task bar. It is scheduled to be fixed in Firefox 25, or you can make a registry edit to restore the deleted key. This thread has the details: unable to open this internet shortcut. the protocol "FirefoxURL" does not have a registered program.
