Problems opening Office 365's webmail's e-mail's links to launch MS Teams mac OS app in Firefox?

This was in an updated mac OS v10.14.6 and Firefox v78.0.1. I had to keeping redownloading its app to join MS teams meetings. 😞 Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. 🙂

AntDude It looks like this is a bug in the latest version of Firefox. I found a post on Reddit about it:

https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/hjvzfq/cannot_open_microsoft_teams_links_since_latest/

As a workaround, the link to open Teams will work if you have the Firefox Developer Tools open. (Either click on Menu > Web Developer > Toggle Tools, or press the F12 key.)

Ryan SteeleWow. Good find since it was working in the past. I wonder who has to fix it. Mozilla? MS? Both?
