When using the New Outlook, you may want to open links to websites in a different browser than the default one. This can be useful if you prefer a different browser for certain tasks, or if you encounter any compatibility issues with the default browser. In this article, we will guide you through the steps to open links in other browsers.
Opening Links in Other Browsers
By default, when you click on a link in the New Outlook, it will open in your default browser. However, you can change this setting to open links in a different browser of your choice. Here's how:
- Open the New Outlook and click on the gear icon in the top right corner to access the settings menu.
- From the dropdown menu, select "View all Outlook settings."
- In the settings pane, navigate to the "General" tab.
- Scroll down to the "Other" section and locate the "Default browser" option.
- Click on the dropdown menu next to "Default browser" and select the browser you want to use.
- Once you have selected your preferred browser, click the "Save" button at the top of the settings pane to apply the changes.
Now, when you click on a link in the New Outlook, it will open in the browser you have selected as the default.
Opening Links in Other Browsers Manually
If you don't want to change your default browser settings but still want to open specific links in a different browser, you can do so manually. Here's how:
- Right-click on the link you want to open in a different browser.
- A context menu will appear. Select the option that says "Copy link address" or "Copy link."
- Open your preferred browser.
- In the address bar, right-click and select "Paste" to paste the copied link.
- Press Enter or click the Go button to open the link in the browser.
Following these steps, you can open specific links in a different browser without changing your default browser settings.
