As of 09/25/23 this WORKS! Bravo FINALLY something that works i had the idea it would be in OUTLOOK settings but had no idea where to find it, Good job!
I never use Edge for anything so it was a little annoying every time I clicked a link in my Outlook. I figured out to right click and copy the link, but I was so happy when I found your video. I am ecstatic that my preferred browser opens now automatically now instead taking the roundabout way. THANK YOU😊
Thank you sooooo much. This issue has been driving me crazy as I set default but did'nt know about Outlook settings for opening link in email as well. You Rock!
Big thanks for this fix! My outlook shows "file and browser preferences" rather than "link handling" but the options underneath were the same. Thanks again for helping me learn how to fix this annoyance!
Thank you. I smell a class action suit against Microsoft. I never agreed to the terms and conditions, yet here I am being forced to use Microsoft Edge.
So I apparently have the new and revised option of "file and browser preferences" which is a dead link, going nowhere, containing nothing. So "open in browser option of Outlook says "Internet Explorer mode was used to launch a document in this tab" and it seems not compatible with some web sites. MS seems to get wrapped around the axle rather easily lately. Are they dumping IE or not?
Thanks for the solution to this. It was driving me nuts because I kept verifying that my default browser in Settings was set to chrome but all off a sudden Edge started opening when I clicked links in emails. That is very deceptive of Microsoft.
Thank you for your help! I appreciate it. However, I do not appreciate pushy sales tactics in regards to the product. While both browsers are good, I prefer not to be pressured into choosing one.
There's no section called "file and browser preferences" under Options>Advanced. There's "autoarchive" as seen in your video, then "link handling" (no option to make changes), then "reminders", as seen in your video
I have a heading that says File and Browser Preferences and then there is just nothing under it. Blank. What a bunch of assholes. Edge is terrible. I wouldn't mind using it if it worked properly but when I open it from outlook I just get a bunch of text at the top.
Thanks super helpful. Mine was in a different section, but the same general location. Still...I had to get annoyed, search for the answer, and watch a video to figure it out.... not cool Microsoft...not cool :P
Worst thing is that they make it super difficult to have certain virus protection linked to new Edge. McAfee etc. Sure this is causing problems globally and just providing opportunities for Hackers. Would love Google to properly release an operating system so that we can all move away
I have followed the instructions but I then get an error message which says "the end date you entered occurs before the start date" with a warning triangle. I did not change any dates. it is really frustrating!
When I change to Default and click okay to save i get a message that says the end date tou entered occurs before the start date - anyone else had that and any idea how to get around it?
I have none of the options shown as illustrated in the video. I have a new laptop as of Monday, and can find no way to make Outlook 365 to use a specific browser!!

Thank you! Very sneaky way of Microsoft not to respect our preferences.

Dude, how would I have ever known without your assistance.....
Thanks that edge link opening has been annoying me for ages!! glad to finally solve that issue!
Thanks a lot, I was stuck on the default browser and protocols and hadn't thought to look in outlook

Glad it helped!
you deserve a nobel peace prize for this!
Thank you. I smell a class action suit against Microsoft. I never agreed to the terms and conditions, yet here I am being forced to use Microsoft Edge.
Thanks! Suddenly all links started to open in edge even though I have used chrome for years
I been looking for this for weeks and thought I would t be able to fix it thanks for this it’s been frustrating trying to find out how to fix this

Thanks so much. MS should be ashamed of this one
thank you sooo much!! I have watched 6 videos to figure this out and you are the only one that had the answer.
Thanks for the solution to this. It was driving me nuts because I kept verifying that my default browser in Settings was set to chrome but all off a sudden Edge started opening when I clicked links in emails. That is very deceptive of Microsoft.
I am using Outlook 365 for the web. How do I open the link in this application. The link I am trying to open is an internal link to my company.
thank you! This was driving me nuts! I am so thankful to find you.

Thank you so much. 😊😊 Finally found someone that knows what they are talking about, so grateful to you.
Great fix, I could not find the solution without your helpful video.
Perfect fix! I couldn't find it. Thank you!!
omg THIS JUST FIXED MY ISSUES. THANK YOU😇
Since this video uploaded no longer have the option to choose which browser - the drop down box has been totally eliminated in Office 365
what outlook app is he using, it doesnt look like mine
I'm stuck because I do not see any of the options you mention in my Advanced section. Any ideas? Thanks!
Thank you! you fixed my problem!

Bruh thank you so much for this - only youtube account that helped - well done!
Just a heads up! As of 9/14 they removed the option to change the default browser in "Link Sharing" so you're basically stuck using Edge.
well that's cheeky!
I have a heading that says File and Browser Preferences and then there is just nothing under it. Blank. What a bunch of assholes. Edge is terrible. I wouldn't mind using it if it worked properly but when I open it from outlook I just get a bunch of text at the top.
Thanks for clarifying. I was going crazy trying to find it. That is really annoying!
Thanks super helpful. Mine was in a different section, but the same general location. Still...I had to get annoyed, search for the answer, and watch a video to figure it out.... not cool Microsoft...not cool :P
Fantastic video 👏Really appreciate your help in sorting out this problem for me .....saved me hours to figure it out or not..thanks!
As of 10/09/2023- this is working and there is no 'obnoxious' pop ups for the Edge browser, it just goes straight into Chrome.
THANK YOU! I was about to try deleting Edge.
Thank You! Nice quick fix for Microsoft's penchant for jerking us around with at least one of their products.
WORKS!!! - Thanks. Microsoft is deceptively sneaky during updates.
Amazing!!!! I own a software company and could not figure this out!! Thanks Bro!!
This was super helpful! Thank you!
Thank you very very much it's taking me an day but when I see your vid it's work now thank you so much👍👍👍

Thanks man, but honestly you could've gotten the point across in 10 seconds..

Looks like Edge acts like a virus.
