When I select a "mailto:" link, the wrong app opens. (Windows 10, btw.) I guess it's a standard MS Mail (or similar name). I want the link to open a new mail in MS Outlook. How can I change the settings so that happens?

Hello, you should check into MS Windows configuration. I've found a relatively clear page about this subject:

  1. How to modify default email client in Windows 10

Tell us if it helps or we will try something else.
