![]() If your email links open in your browser with no side-pane (like it does for us) then don’t worry about it. We prefer to test for ourselves and not take Microsoft’s word. That’s why Office Watch hasn’t written about this before. ![]() I’ll be honest, I cannot get this feature to work no matter what combination of Outlook, Windows and Edge we’ve tried. Doesn’t work for you? Don’t worry about it! UNselect ‘Automatically open Outlook email context in the side pane’. Under ‘App Specific Settings’ choose Outlook (probably at the bottom.

With Chrome, it also worked although, I did get a pop-up that asked what program I wanted to use. I also downloaded Google Chrome to test it. I did this on the URL on both Brave versions.Īs I mentioned, with the URL everything works on Microsoft Edge. However, once I refreshed the page, this stopped working. After doing this, I was then able to click the email link and Outlook opened, as it should.
