User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:137.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/137.0

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open any page for which there is an local app that supports the url (for example google play store)

Actual results:

I get a prompt "do you want to open it in the app" with the (deselected) checkbox "do it always"

Expected results:

In advanced options for "Open links in applications" I set it to "Never" hence there should be no prompt!

It's utterly annoying and makes the navigation a pain…
