Windows 10: Using my volume up or down keys now opening new browser window and Outlook, not answered in...

This is the same old Microsoft Nonsense. Of course, that question and answer I found was posted back in 2020. None of the suggestions in the thread work today.

Opening a .MSG file created by Outlook 365

Because the apps I had tried and the one I had installed, appeared on the list of possible Apps in the list for opening MSG files, I thought that repairing Outlook might work. So I tried the repair option as Sheltieuk had suggested. When I then tried Start – Defaults afterwards and looked to see what was available to open MSG files, Outlook had appeared on the list! Selected that and it worked.

For once I have posed not only a question but an answer!!

 

Increase Volume key opens Outlook

Whenever I try to increase the volume on my PC, using a dedicated volume key, my computer opens an instance of Outlook. None of the other keys in the top row work, with the exception of the mail key and the app-switcher key, which both function as intended. I am not sure if this is an issue with Windows, or the keyboard itself.

Specifications:

OS Build - Windows 11 Pro Insider Preview 25236.1000

Keyboard - Logitech K330
