Hyperlinks don't work in windows 10 mail

Hyperlinks don't work in windows 10 mail... how can this issue be rectified?  Have spent hours reading internet and haven't been able to find a solution?

My system is Windows 10 Pro and the mail is what came with Office 2016 students edition.

Hi Robyn,

It is possible that this is a browser issue or registry problems. For us to properly isolate your issue, we'd like to ask some questions:

  • Are you using the default mail app for Windows 10 or Outlook 2016?
  • Are you having issues inserting or accessing the hyperlink?
  • Did you encounter any error messages when working on the hyperlink?


In addition, if you're encountering the issue using the Outlook application, we have provided an article below for a resolution:

I am using Mail that comes with Office Student 2016....

I am unable to access hyperlinks within emails I received.  When I click on link I a blank page displays and then I receive a sad face icon and that is it.

To even answer your questions I had to do a copy and paste as nothing happened when I clicked on the 'reply' link.

with thanks

Robyn

We have verified that Outlook application is not included in the Office Home and Student 2016. However, if you can check if you're using an Outlook application, we'd like to verify if you've performed the resolution provided on the article we have provided below:

Hyperlinks are not working in Outlook

However, if you're encountering the issue while using the default Mail app for Windows 10, we recommend setting Internet Explorer as the default app to open hyperlinks.

To do this, click Start, click Settings (cog icon), click Apps, choose Default apps, in Web browser, select Internet Explorer.

Feel free to post back for the results.
