Are you sure your friend tried clicking a hyperlink in an OL 2010 email while IE11 was set as the default browser? I have yet to hear from anyone for whom this works as expected. You can, of course,...

Are you sure your friend tried clicking a hyperlink in an OL 2010 email while IE11 was set as the default browser? I have yet to hear from anyone for whom this works as expected. You can, of course,...
If you'll read through the thread, you'll see that it works with any browser OTHER than IE11. SlartyBart's suggestions were great reasonable, and logical ones, but they didn't work for IE11. I'm...
Hey, Caveman. That's good advice. I just followed it. We can only hope!
Hi, Bill -- I know I'm not alone in appreciating the effort you've put into this. The problem is really perplexing. You're right, it's only hyperlinks in Outlook that launch this dreaded screen:
...
You're right. I should have said Outlook 2010 and earlier. It seems really weird to me that, at least in Office 2010, Outlook is the only one that gives the nag screen. I like IE11 better than...
Please read through the thread again. You will see that the problem is specific to the combination "Outlook 2010 & IE11 & Windows 10." It is not resolved by setting defaults.
Not the most elegant solution, but what I would probably do is copy all your bookmarks from OneDrive to the appropriate folder on your hard drive. (It would likely be "c:\users\pmai\Favorites.")

I'm not sure if FireFox can sync favorites with OneDrive, but it DOES sync bookmarks, favorites, etc. with a (free) FireFox account. I use Apple's iCloud to sync favorites, bookmarks, photos, etc. It...
Yeah, Classic Shell made Win 8.1 a lot nicer. Personally, I can't for the life of me see why anyone would want the "metro" interface or "modern apps." I would switch all my computers to Win 10 if:

That's one feature of Win 10 that I really like!
Am I alone, or are there others out there who would like a DESKTOP operating system to use with their DESKTOP computers? Swiping, pinching, tapping, chanting arcane spells to your Cortana crystal...
I've tried messing around with the settings in IE11, too: turn off protected mode, decrease security at various sites, etc. None of that had any effect either.
Pmai, I'm still looking for some solution, too. One work-around you could try would be to install FireFox and set it as your default browser. I've tried that, and I'm somewhat surprised at how good...
Ok, so Edge is early in its development. So what? I want something that works now -- and in the way I want it to work. I agree with people who are saying that Edge seems like some kind of...
What mail app are you using?
I don't think this will work if you're trying to use Outlook 2010 and IE11. There is a problem related specifically to that combination. Other posts say the problem is not present with Outlook 2013 &...
Hi, Pmai. Have you found a solution to this yet? I have the same problem.
I have the same problem as the original poster. Your solution does not work -- at least, for links in Outlook 2010. No matter how you try to set IE 11 as the default browser, clicking a hyperlink in...
