Ubuntu 18.04.1 Firefox Quantum and protocol handler

$

I've (seemingly) successfully installed the Horizon view client, but when attempting to connect I'm getting an error in firefox - basically the "vmware-view" protocol handler isn't install(ing)?

 

Anyone got any ideas? I've restarted, uninstalled/reinstalled etc, with no luck.

 

The URL starts with "vmware-view://"

 

Error message:

 

The address wasn’t understood

 

Firefox doesn’t know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (vmware-view) isn’t associated with any program or is not allowed in this context.

 

    You might need to install other software to open this address.

 

 

System info:

 

$ lsb_release -a
