Hi, Go to settings, system, default Apps, and select Chrome as default web browser.

Had same issue and this worked for me.

You may want to try setting it manually through Windows. This is done by doing the following:

Open the Control Panel
Go to Programs > Default Programs >Set Default Programs
Once the list populates, find Google Chrome
Select it and then press the "Set as Default" button

Note : Stop at step #7. Omit step #8.

The result..............................using www.google.ca as my example

Changing the Default on Control Panel worked for me.

Why on Gods Earth when asked by Windows 10 to set a default and if it is not what Microsoft wants yopu to enter, they just choose to ignore you. Very BAD user experience and some programmer out there needs to be fired ASAP.
