Hi there,

We've been having issues with some internal email sharing links from SharePoint online. Everyone in our office has Chrome set as their default browser however when we share some links to documents on SharePoint, some only get this link opening in Microsoft Edge by default, when they would like this to open in Chrome automatically.

Is there any way to set this up so all shared email links open in Chrome? I've tried checking the default settings on my laptop and default by protocol settings etc. but nothing seems to work.

Microsoft 365 and Office SharePoint For business Windows

    Hi Kristin Hansen, per my test, this issue may be related to your Outlook settings, please try setting the hyperlink opening with to default browser. Hope this helps.
