Suddenly Firefox is not the default browser anymore?

Suddenly link (in e-mails, programs) are not opened anymore in the same portable Firefox (I have more than one Firefox).

When I click "Make Default"

I come to this page:

I click the browser, IE, and this is shown:

None of the browsers is the Firefox I want to be the default browser. How could I make that brwoser the default one and keep it as the default one?

Why are here that many captchas to solve each time?

Manually Set As Default

You cannot set Firefox itself as the default within Firefox Portable. That will set Firefox running in local mode (firefox.exe) as the default. The only way to set Firefox Portable as the default is to do it manually using a third party tool to set FirefoxPortable.exe as your default browser.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

Many thanks.

Many thanks.

I am not quite sure to understand. That portable Firefox, FirefoxPortable.exe, always was the default browser until to a few days ago. Now I would like to make it the default browser again. How could I do it?

What tool could I use?

Windows 10 Home, 64bit
