This plugin works perfectly for all newly created posts as it describes.
Thanks for this little plugin!

Doesn't work anymore!

This plugin was last updated 2 years ago, and it doesn't work anymore.

Just tested it with my WordPress install, version 4.4! Nothing happens.

I recommend using "WP Autoset Featured Image Plus":
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-autoset-featured-image-plus/

Does exactly the same thing and works perfectly!

Wish it worked for existing posts...

I can see how this would be useful, though, but for my purposes and by the name of it, I was hoping it'd go through old posts and, if they didn't have a featured image, set the first image.
