Windows 10: I cannot open links in my outlook emails

I cannot open links in my outlook emails.

Please show remedy to resolve the issue.

:)

 

email links in Outlook open Mail, not Outlook mail.

Try this out:

• Open Settings and click the Apps section.
  
• Click Default apps on the left.
  
• Here you probably already see that Outlook is set as your default for email at the top of the list (if not, set it again).
  
• Scroll down and choose "Associate apps by protocol"
  
• Scroll down the list to the M's and find "MAILTO" and make sure that one also says Outlook (if not, set it there also)
  
• Try clicking an email link again and see if it pops to Outlook.

Unable to open links in emails

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are unable to open links from emails. I’ll certainly help you with the issue.



However, it would be great if you can help us with the details requested below:

• What is the complete error message that you receive?
  
• Which email client are you using to access your emails i.e. Microsoft Outlook or Windows Mail?
  
• Were you able to open links from emails earlier?
  
• Which version of Windows are you using? To check type:
  winver in the search bar on the Taskbar and hit
  Enter.
  

If you are using Windows Mail app, I would suggest you to try changing the Default web browser and check if that helps. Refer the steps mentioned in the article

If you are facing this issue in Microsoft Outlook, I suggest you to refer the steps mentioned in the article
