For the last couple of days when clicking on links in emails nothing happens. I have to copy the shortcut and then paste it into my web browser.

I haven't altered anything but have had a recent windows update/download.

I am finding this very time consuming :thumbsup:

I'm sure one of you clever people on here will be able to tell me what to do to rectify this :flowers:

Thanks
