Can't Open Links from MS Outlook

Had no problem until today. IE11 is my default browser. Get this message when I click on a link in MS Outlook:

You'll Need a New App to
Open this HTTPs. Look for App in The Store

Any ideas?

Suggestions :

1. Do a system restore. Pick a date you did NOT have this problem as your restore point.
System Restore Windows 10

2. If the above does not help, go to Programs and Features > scroll down to Microsoft office > right click at it > click Change > click Repair.

3. Use this tutorial

Select Option Two > at the File type or protocol table, scroll down to HTTP > click the http link > follow the steps #1 to step #7.
Make sure you restart the computer.

OK. Got it working but now it's opening to MS Edge. I prefer IE11. Tried resetting defaults and associations but can't get urls, etc to open into IE11.

Right click at Start button > Control Panel > top right, click View by > select either large or small > Default Programs > Set your default programs > wait for loading > click at Internet Explorer > right side, click Set this program as default > click OK when done.

....................Tried that but it only gets me to the original problem:

Have you tried Suggestion #3 from post #2 ?

Yes, tried them all. Seems to me that there's a W10 problem with my desktop. As I mentioned, my laptop is OK in that it does offer browser options in Settings/Default apps while the desktop does not. I may try a clean install of course after a create a new image.

Please post back the result of clean install.
Good luck.

That did it. I now at least get a choice of browsers when clicking on a link in Outlook. Being able to "Clean Install" without losing any apps or settings is a real blessing. "Settings/Default apps" again offers a choice for the default browser.

To be honest. I don't think you did a "clean install", because as the name implies, clean install will not let you keep anything.
I think you did a repair/in-place install ?
Show me the tutorial you used, if you don't mind.
