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.

2022-07-06T14:55:22+00:00 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.

2022-07-06T14:35:37+00:00 I have found another work around that doesn't require messing with any themes. First, click the link (this will help highlight it). Next hit CTRL-A and then hit CTRL-C. Now you'll be able to paste it into a web browser. This is definitely not a great solution but it works.
