Hello Pablo,

By default, web links will open in Microsoft Edge. But you can change it by going to Settings > Files and links > Link open preference and select the browser you prefer in your case Google Chrome.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

    I'm going so far as to call this behaviour from Microsoft as "dirty and dishonourable".

    Get Chrome/Firefox: "Hey, you can use Edge instead"

    Change the defaults: "Hey, are you sure? You can use Edge, instead! Try it"

    Open Teams: "You're opening everything from here in Edge, right? I'll just default to Edge instead of the defaults you chose. It's rude, but I don't care".

    Yeah, no. 30 years of distrust in your stupid app keeps me from doing that.

    My Default Browser is set to Chrome, but it's till not prompting a 2nd dropdown to select Chrome nor is Chrome listed in the Links Open Preference dropdown (2 screenshots below). If there is a solution via the Admin account, please let me know.

    Update: The option to select the browser to open links has returned.... I don't control the ms updates on my corporate machine, so I'm not sure why, but I can select Chrome again.
