Hello there... I know the fix for this issue.
So this is what the issue is, to be easy and clear.
When you go to Default Applications, There are many categories to choose default apps.
Default Browser, Default music player, ETC...
The problem is, you try to switch a default app, Example, switching from Edge browser to Chrome browser, The changes will not apply !
There is a simple way to fix this, with out reinstalling windows 10.
Travel to: Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\User Accounts
When you see your account, you need to edit it. There will be an option that says: Log in with Microsoft Account instead.
Done, click on that link, log in to your hotmail/ outlook/ or any microsoft email you may have. Finish the process, and reboot your machine.
DONE !!! Problem fixed !
The reason that caused this to happen to me, was, I was using a Windows Account to log in to windows. Then I switched to a Local Account (I dont remember why I did that)... Then, I updated windows (I don't remember with KB update it was), then I reinstalled chrome, since mine was bugged, and I could never set it to default again.
I switched back to log in with Microsoft Account, and it fixed the problem.
I don't know if this is the only way to duplicate the problem, but I am 100% sure, this is what caused it on my machine.
I hope this can help some one because this issue can be very frustrating. RIGHT?
Good luck guys.
