    Hi @MikeH3 , please try to uninstall Parallels Desktop and check if that works.

    I have 6 virtual machines on here. It was fine for last 3 years but just created a new virtual machine with Windows 10 Pro 64 bit and now this comes up each time.

    Please shut Windows down, open the virtual machine configuration window, navigate to Options -> Web & Email and select 'Default' for both 'Web pages' and 'Email'. Close this window now. Next, navigate to Apple Icon -> System Preferences... -> General and set 'Default web browser:' to 'Safari'. Close this window now and see if the issue re-occurs.

    YES! that corrected the issue. You rock thanks!
    I believe it was setting the VM configured for "default" that made the difference.
