Windows 10: Hyperlink shows whenever mouse is hovered over a picture in an email in Mail app

When using Mail Version 16005.11901.20184.0 I find that as the mouse pointer passes over a link in any email it shows up the link data as shown in the attached picture.


This only occurs in my Mail program and it occurs on all emails.

Windows 10 mail hyperlinks

Hi,

Since the option above did not work, we suggest resetting the Mail application by following the steps below:

• Click Settings and choose System.
• Click on Apps & features, scroll down at the right side and choose
  Mail and Calendar.
• Click Advance options then click Reset tab (A check mark will show up when reset is done.).
• Open Mail app, sign-in on your account and check if you will be able to click on the hyperlinks.

NOTE: Resetting it might delete the data/appointments that you have on the Calendar. We suggest performing a back up before resetting it.

Get back to us if you have other concerns.

 

contact pictures not showing in mail app

The next troubleshooting step we suggest is to uninstall and reinstall the Mail app. Here are the steps:

• 
  Click the Start button.
  
• 
  Type Windows Powershell.
  
• 
  Right-click Windows Powershell and click
  Run as Administrator.
  
• 
  Type Get-AppxPackage *windowscommunicationsapps* | Remove-AppxPackage
  
• 
  Press Enter.
  

Note: The Mail app and the Calendar app are tied together, so the Calendar app will get uninstalled as well.



After uninstalling the Mail app, restart your computer. You can then reinstall it by following these steps:

• 
  Click the Start button.
  
• 
  Type Windows Powershell.
  
• 
  Right-click Windows Powershell and click
  Run as Administrator.
  
• 
  Type Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers| Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”}
  
• 
  Press Enter.
  

When choosing a contact photo, the Photos app would show the pictures under the "Collection" tab by default. You can click the last icon, which would bring you to the "Folders"
tab. You can then browse the folders in your computer for the picture you want.







Let us know if the contact photos appear in the Mail app after reinstalling it.

 

Hyperlinks are not working in any email app.


I have seen earlier posts regarding this but the suggested fixes have not worked for my problem. The hyperlinks are not working in any desktop email app, viz. Mail, Yahoo, Google, TouchMail. What is more is they do not work in the online versions either. Realizing this is probably related to defaults I have examined: 'by file type, by protocol, by apps, by program.' The procedures described do not seem to be quite correct for my OS, perhaps they are out of date now? In particular there is a reference to 'click the all box.' I cannot find an 'all box.'

Advice please?
