User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:51.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/51.0 Build ID: 20161023004025 Steps to reproduce: I use firefox to default preview my images. I recently switched to firefox developer, but I'm unable to associate .jpg with firefox devloper. It keeps opening the file in the default firefox. I associated the .jpg to firefox developer trough the properties menu of the jpg file, and selected the firefox developer executable to open jpg. But it still keeps the association with the default firefox. In the windows settings (file association), I don't have the choice to select firefox developers at all. Actual results: No Mather what i do it keeps the file association to the default firefox Expected results: File association, should change to firefox developers

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0 Build ID: 20161026030210 Hi, I have tested this issue using FF latest Nightly (Build ID: 20161026030210) and FF Developer Edition (Build ID:20161023004025) and reproduced it. I installed FF Nightly and set default app to open .jpg files, after I installed FF Developer Edition and I could not change it to default app to open .jpg files from System Settings. After I uninstalled FF Nightly, the default app to open .jpg files was automatically changed to FF Developer Edition. Have you uninstalled the FF version you used before install FF Developer Edition?
