Unfortunately, I am still having issues with Thunderbird and Firefox, where Thunderbird creates Blogs & News Feeds, instead of sending a link for Firefox to open. But if Thunderbird mysteriously behaves as expected and it sends the link to Firefox to open, Firefox will then display it's not the default web browser, yet running a command to check the default browser, shows it's Firefox. I have attached a screengrab of the two windows.
Is there any harm in uninstalling Konqueror from TDE and using something else as a file manager? The only other solution I see, would be to uninstall both Firefox and Thunderbird and use Vivaldi and it's mail client (after it's turned on) and use that from now on.
OS: Debian 10 stable
Brief update: If I log out of the session, then log back in, Firefox shows it's the default web browser now and in clicking a link in a different email, Thunderbird correctly sent it to Firefox, without creating Blogs & News Feeds.
Could there be something in TDE causing the described behavior?

I've never experience this but I would guess this has more to do with firefox/thunderbird setting then tde.
Try looking at all the config files. Also have you tried a clean, new user to see if you can recreate the problem? Try creating "ed2" and see what happens?
I know this isn't much help but my experience with odd behaviors has always led me to one thing. I ^(*&^) something up. So I started with a fresh user, making incremental backups of said user as I slowly recreated me previous setup.

Firefox keeps switching between being the default browser, to not being the default browser, sometimes during the same session. I don't know what's causing this, except that I have seen this behavior if I launch Konqueror or PCManFM-Qt as a file manager.
I also have Vivaldi installed, both Stable and Snapshot, but I'm wondering if the system is treating Konqueror as a web browser, not a file manager... I could always try uninstalling Konqueror, but I don't know if that would cause other issues with TDE.
