When ESR 52.7 is running, and Quantum 67.0.2 not open, clicking an HTML file opens and displays it in Quantum. Different action from previous Q version.

If ESR was running, HTML files used to open only in ESR. Now they will open and display in Quantum instead; This change was noticed after both Quantum and Windows were recently updated.

I have FF Quantum 67.0.2 installed in C:\Program Files, and also run FF Portable ESR 52.7.4 from a user file outside of Windows. They use completely separate profiles. I occasionally use ESR, when I need to use certain add-ons that Quantum does not support.

Since I installed ESR years ago, only one instance of Firefox was ever allowed - ESR or Quantum. Whichever version was running would not allow the other version to load - the message that FF was already running would appear.

Now I am able to open Quantum when ESR is running, but cannot open ESR when Quantum is open. Also, when I had ESR open, page links and internal Windows Explorer HTML files, opened in the ESR browser. Now if I click on a Windows Explorer HTML link it opens and displays the page in Quantum, but links on the ESR page will still open in ESR.

Is this is a Firefox or a Windows problem?

I only noticed the change after both FF Q and Windows were updated. Does anyone have any insight?

Running PC with Windows 10 Home 1809 - OS build 17763.529 (latest as of today ). I am also composing this question using the ESR browser.

Firefox 67 changed its approach to profiles and to simultaneous execution. I haven't seen a good document explaining it. However I think this much is clear: if you have Firefox 67 as your default browser, external links will be directed to Firefox 67 and your default profile, whether that is the running profile or not.

As I stated in my initial post, I use ESR when I have need of API features that Quantum no longer supports. I just happened to be using ESR when I noticed the problem, and wrote the question within that browser. I am now using FF 67 to compose this reply.

Your answer implies that it is NOT a windows problem, but is a result of a change in Firefox. Personally, I would prefer to have the old approach, with only one instance of FF open, but will have to live with this new policy. Oh well, so far I am able to keep track of which open browser is displaying the HTML file and can access the correct profile if need be.
