I use Office 2019 and Classic Outlook.? Lately, EDGE will not share to Calas sic Outlook but only brings up a screen offering to install New Outlook.? I don't want New Outlook.

How can I get EDGE to share to Classic outlook?

I do not know what you mean by Edge "sharing" with an email client.? More details are necessary.

?

Also, Outlook 2016 & 2019, along with Windows 10, all go out of support in October, so it's time to start looking at a replacement for Outlook 2019.

Brian,

In Microsoft EDGE, if I click on the share icon, a popup screen appears with a number of app that can be targets of the share.? Outlook is one of the targets.? A target is an app to which information is sent, and which receives the shared information.? Until, recently, clicking on Share and then Outlook in the popup caused the current URL to be sent to Outlook.? If Outlook was open, then the URL appeared in the message of a new email.? If Outlook was not open, then Outlook opened and a new email containing the URL appeared.??

All references to Outlook so far are to Classic Outlook which I use.??

Nowadays, when I click on Share, and then click on Outlook on the popup screen, I get another screen offering tom install New Outlook which I do not want.

Milton,

I suspect you are going to have to change your practices.? I understand what you're saying, but even on my computer I cannot force Edge to use Outlook Classic anymore with the Share option.? And to make matters worse, even when New Outlook is opened to the edit window for a new message, the URL is not carried over that you've activated the share option for.

Part of what Perplexity.ai said is this, and I believe they're correct:

What they recommend is precisely what I'd do.? In the context menu for the link instead of selecting Share I'd choose Copy link instead, and then just go to Outlook Classic, create the message, address it, and paste that link in.? That's actually what I've been doing when sharing links from any browser via email, regardless of the email/webmail client.? I always copy the link (regardless of its source) and then paste it in to the email message I've created, titled, and addressed, adding specific information in the message for the recipient about the link being sent.
