Also in this category is the Firefox Updates section, make sure that Automatically install updates is selected. You can always change it back if it doesn't work the way you want it to.

If you think something is questionable, just change the action. I would just review them to make sure everything looked good. Here you can choose what happens when you select different actions, like when you click on a mailto: link.

One of the default settings on this page that I always change is in the Downloads section. These settings are mainly personal preferences that configure how Firefox looks and works.

And some options can only be accessed by using the Menu Bar, but I'll talk about that later in this article.

What might surprise you is that I have all three browsers installed on my personal computer, and Firefox is my default browser.
