Whether you're using Windows 10 or the latest Windows 11, this guide will help you set Firefox as your default browser with minimal fuss. Setting Firefox as your default browser on Windows has become a bit more involved due to changes in how Windows manages default applications. With the release of Firefox version 126, we introduced a new guidance notification feature to help you easily navigate these changes.
Note: This article applies to Windows 10 or Windows 11. For previous versions of Windows, see Make Firefox your default browser. If you don’t currently have Firefox installed on your computer, first download and install Firefox.
