Does Firefox or Windows display any error message when you try to start Firefox using its shortcut?

If you instead try to launch a link in your default browser, will Firefox start that way? For example, you can paste

https://www.microsoft.com/

into the Windows 10 search box and press Enter to submit it, and it should open in your default browser. Of course, if Firefox is not your default browser, that wouldn't provide any useful information...

Do you recall anything unusual happening the last time Firefox worked normally? For example, did it crash in a severe way, or was it the process of updating (or refreshing settings) and got interrupted?
