There is no software installed for these files.

I know that. That is not the problem. The problem is that when I type those extensions in the search bar it goes blank. But they were there before I updated to newest version, now they don't show up so that I can tell Firefox where i want them to go when I download files with these extentions. The only thing that comes up are irc extentions and Adobe.
