Thanks got it to work. What I did was Start, Setting, Apps, Default Apps, then click on Web Browser and change from Google Chrome to Microsoft Edge.

You need to set your default browser to Edge.

Where do I find that "Start" option? I don't see it on the top menu, which begins with File and ends with Help.

Thanks! - Dan

I believe all you need is to enter 'default' in the search box in windows task bar, and that takes you to the default apps menu.
