    "Edge" Took My "Chrome"
    « on: August 21, 2015, 11:56:03 AM »
    After upgrading(?) to Windows 10, any link in an email opens in "Edge" instead of "Chrome" like it used to. I used to depend on "Chrome's" Autofill feature to fill out shipping info, etc. Does "Edge" have an Autofill feature hidden where I haven't been able to find it? Can I uninstall "Edge" and revert back to "Chrome"? Any other ideas of how I can get "Autofill"?

    When you open Chrome, does it ask whether you want it to be your default browser?  If so, then click OK/Yes to make it your default browser.

    If that does not work, go to Control Panel, then to Default Programs, and set Chrome to be the default browser; I believe the screen has an option specifically for email links but I haven't actually confirmed this. 

    Oh, and I don't know whether you can remove Edge but I suggest leaving Edge alone.  As stated above, you just need to get the defaults set right.
