I have Samsung set as my default browser but links have started opening in Edge. 

Can anyone help me?

Thanks.

Hi @Flutterby24 and welcome

it's likely because specific applications like email clients (like Outlook) might have their own settings to open links in Edge, overriding your system-wide default browser setting, you need to check the individual app settings to ensure they are also set to use your preferred browser (Samsung) for opening links.

Hello, thank you.

I have looked in the settings, and my default browser should open.

There must be something I've missed.

Is it just outlook links or all links in general?

Default browser = System default browser

Outlook preferred browser = Edge

In outlook settings 

 Outlook Home button > Settings Sprocket  > Open links in > pick "Default browser"

then on the device itself

Settings > Apps > Choose default apps >  Browser app >  pick "Samsung Internet"

In that case, you might need to clear the Outlook App cache. And maybe data too but then You might need then to re-enter your accounts info, then check the settings again to make sure that;

Outlook Home button > Settings Sprocket  > Open links in > pick "Default browser"
