I don’t see what is the sense of this.
I think if a file is open and npp can work with it, the view should work.
The same issue exists on my wife’s Windows 8 machine.

This is not a problem for me. Maybe somebody will tell sometime, why it doesn’t work. In the meantime, I wrote my own Run command for Firefox, because the built-in “Launch in Firefox” runs not the standard but the Nightly version, like the Windows 10 Run box, probably because it was installed last time. I only use Nightly for testing.

But why then @László Botka can not do this?
Through the start menu, I can open files without restrictions … I personally like it more

The files don’t have to be html for these options to be enabled. “Normal text” files, which the OP’s appears to be, will (or should!) open just fine in (for example) Chrome.

Run Menu no longer displays "Launch in ". on Sat, 01 Jun 2019 13:46:59 GMT]]>Unfortunately all browser name is disabled in the View - “View Current File in” menu item, the browsers don’t start.
I tried with more existing, old or freshly saved txt files on C: , D: hard drive, in the installed and portable version too.
I have three versions of Firefox installed, Chrome is not installed, Edge and IE installed by default.
The Launch in … and Send via … UserDefinedCommands are in comment.
What could be the reason of this ?

Notepad++ v7.7 (32-bit)
Build time : May 19 2019 - 13:08:20
Path : C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\notepad++.exe
Admin mode : OFF

Plugins : combine.dll ComparePlugin.dll DSpellCheck.dll HexEditor.dll LocationNavigate.dll mimeTools.dll NppBookmarkManager.dll NppCalc.dll NppConverter.dll NppExport.dll NppSaveAsAdmin.dll PluginManager.dll

No change if I start with -noPlugin .
