Make Outlook default program in Windows 10
We are rolling out Windows 10 computers. Â I've noticed the at when i click on on a link that is MailTo and is suppose to open outlook new email a windows opens up to log into the Microsoft email and doesn't open Outlook New Email. Â The computer has Office 2010. Â
If i go into Settings >Â Defualt apps >Â Email I select MS Outlook and it works but I am doing this manually while signed on as the user. Â How can I do this group policy so it affects all Windows 10 computers? Â I already have policy to set default file associates to open with certain programs such as IE11 (instead of Edge) and .pdf with Adobe Reader. Â
Thanks for your help.

I saw that and have tried it but it doesn't seem to do anything.
I have added .adm to group policy but I still not change. Â See the attached picture.
I have also added the following to the file associations file i have created but it does not make a difference:
<Association Identifier="mailto" ProgId="AppXydk58wgm44se4b
