This is how you choose how to open links in Windows

Unfortunately, Microsoft has very strict methods to get us to use the Edge browser, and the computer is often set to use this program automatically. This applies, for example, to email links. Anyone who clicks on one of these programs may, against their will, end up in the Edge browser instead of the email program they prefer to use.

But fortunately, there is a simple solution to choosing what to open yourself, a function called Default Applications. This is the method you use.
