Windows 10: email link browser selection

When I click on a link within an email message, I receive a screen asking which program to open the said link. I choose Internet Explorer and check the box to always use this program. IE is my default browser but this continues to pop up when I click on a link within any email message received. My OS is Windows X and I am using Outlook 2010. All help greatly appreciated... Thank you.

Win10 Outlook email link to browser


Every time i open an email and then click a link to go to a website Windows 10 pops up a question of which browser i want to use for that link. I select the Always use this app option but it asks every time. I have set Chrome as my default browser but it still asks this question every time. How can this pop up stop asking?
