Not working on Win 10 - works on Win 7 #5

The addon is working fine on

Windows 7 Pro V.6.1 Build 7601 SP1

but not on

Windows 10 Pro Build 19044. A new window or popup opens and closes shortly afterwards.

Any hints to resolve this issue?

If you have an issue choosing the application to open Telegram links, you can open this link manually: https://telegram.me/share/url?url="test" And check the check button to always open telegram links with telegram desktop. This is a Firefox setting, not a problem with the extension.

Another way of doing this: you can go to the Firefox settings, scroll down to the "Applications" part and make sure that for "tg" content type, "Action" is selected as "Use Telegram Desktop (default)

The addon now is working on Win 10 ✅

Thanks, this is just to confirm that on Windows 10 Pro, the aforesaid instruction solved the issue for me.
