Thunderbird is unrensponsive to opening links

After following the accepted answer in this question I tried changing the boolean values of the two variables:

  1. network.protocol-handler.warn-external.http [From False to True]
  2. network.protocol-handler.warn-external.https [From False to True]

And then when trying to open a link I selected the browser that I wished and the link opened normally.

But afterwards no link was opening in no browser. I tried resetting those variables to the initial state but still nothing happens.

How can I reset the editor or what should I do to fix this problem?
