I used notepad ++ to save an html doc to my desktop. It's wrapped in the FireFox Icon. However, when I click to open it...nothing happens. Rt Click open with option Explorer and Chrome is fine. I want FF.

I had no problems last week viewing my programming work as I make changes.

I upgraded to version 15 2 days ago and this is the only html doc that will not populate. All other sites are fine both secure and non.

Try using File > Open File... from within Firefox and see if that works.
