Microsoft announced this change as a winning move to make Windows 10 an even more secure operating system, but probably the real reason behind the Redmond giant was to get people to use Microsoft Edge as their primary operating system as much as possible.

But the users were probably not happy with this move of Microsoft’s. Since the change people have been filing feedback with Microsoft to not force them to use Microsoft Edge thus prompting Microsoft to change their system as soon as possible.

And the changes are here, with the future updates Mail and Calendar app will have Link options under Reading Pane which will allow users to choose if they want the links to open through Microsoft Edge or some other third-party browser.

The next version will also find certain other introduced improvements; there will be a small restyling for the mail folders which will be joined by new icons and Inking capabilities for Mail app as well.

It seems that Microsoft has heard the complaints of its users and is working hard to shape these apps according to the feedback from the users.
