Windows 10: I can't get rid of "File Download-Security Warning" message in my links

After updating W10 last evening, I am suddenly getting the "File Download-Security Warning" message every time I try to open a link. My Bookmarks toolbar is still OK. I have tried some the methods shown on the Community and Microsoft web sites to correct it. Some of the sites say press start and type inetcpl.cpt. The only problem is that I don't see a place to type when I hit the start button. Do they mean "Search"? I've been through the steps in the menu to change the launch setting and have restarted the computer to no avail. Has anyone got a surefire way to change it back to where it was be

That's ok. To help clarify for everyone, which registry editing did you use and apply?

In addition, what error message are you trying to get rid of?

File Download Security Warning - WIndows 10

Google Chrome is my default browser. I tried clearing browser data in it as you suggested for Edge, but that didn't work. This File Download - Security Warning message whenever I go to a url saved in a link is a recent occurrence I believe associated with
a recent Windows Update.

Please help. I have many URLs saved as links and this is becoming a nuisance.
