For those who don't want to play with powershell, admin privileges etc etc.

Simply open Microsoft Store, click My Library (bottom left), click Get Updates (top right). That's it.

    FYI - I sent a message through chat and they indicated that this is a known issue as you can see here: https://share.getcloudapp.com/jkuXX7LP

    OMG---this is not a solution! The problem is at least 3 months old and we've basically done the requisite troubleshooting. Someone from MSFT needs to fix this ****-plication.

    I just tried with a message that also had a link and you're correct Greg. However I was able to hold the left mouse button to highlight the link text only and while holding I hit CTRL-C which did then copy the link which can be pasted into a browser.

    Only problem with that option adam is that it selects all of the message text, not just the hyperlink so when you past into the browser, we have to delete all of the text that's not part of the URL
