Hyperlink in outlook emails will not open

more options

I updated from 62.0b19 to 62.0b20 (Windows 10, 64-bit) this morning.

After I updated the links in outlook emails no longer open in Firefox.

If I change the default browser to Chrome or IE the link work properly.

Uninstalled, wiped all traces of Firefox from the registry, removed all "html" associations from the registry and reinstalled Firefox.

Opened another email, clicked on a link and chose Firefox when it asked how I wanted to open these type of items.

The link never opened in Firerfox.

Hi, if no reason to be running a beta, do not. It can change tomorrow. You can also run the Regular Release and Developer at the same time as has a compatibility mode if need to run a Beta.

Shares Bookmarks unless custom install to separate places.

Please see if you can see anything in the link as there has been various attempts by Microsoft to have only Edge open Outlook Email.

There's no link in your reply.

I can create a new email with a link like https://www.google.com and it does not open.

As mention using beta will not get proper help here. And when removing FF did you delete the mozilla folder as well. Also it's best to use WebOutlook with IE or Edge - FF has been problematic with WebOutlook otherwise you should install Office suite with Outlook and use that for you email instead.
