Every day -- numerous times, I get notified that Firefox is not my default browser even though I set am constantly setting up Firefox as my default. Windows 10 seems to be resetting it constantly every day -- it is getting really frustrating. Every time I set Firefox as my default, 15 minutes later I go in to do something and ... sure enough, Windows 10 has changed it back to Edge. Please help.

Hi   !
That is so annoying and frustrating   ! You have of course set Firefox as your default browser in both the 3-bar menu   (Firefox) ,   and in Windows 10 menu. Would you take a look at:
'How to change your default browser in Windows 10'   &nbsp http://mzl.la/1ScxB7w
And   (pretty much the same, but I'm giving it to you anyway):
'Make Firefox your default browser'    http://mzl.la/1xKrKfO
Also:

If none of these articles are any help to you;   we'll have to find
another way   ....

You guys keep telling me how to reset it -- I KNOW HOW TO DO THIS!!!!

But it keeps getting reset somehow. Let me try again. I have done everything you are are describing, MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY!

Do you have any other ideas?
