Previously, when I clicked emails in Outlook 365 and selected the 'Open in web browser' option when this is available, this would open in FF. Now, after a recent Windows 10 re-install and running FF 66.0, these open only in IE even though I have FF set as my default browser in Control Panel. What else do I need to do to get 'Open in web browser' to open in FF again?

Thanks. I have done all that. Before, that has been sufficient for links in my emails in Outlook 365 to open in Firefox. But now, they are opening in IE and I'm not sure what else I need to do. The extension in the links seems to be .mht if that helps.
