I fully agree and sympathize with you.
I faced a similar problem and here is the solution for it.
First uninstall Google Chrome (From what you have written; you have already uninstalled it).
Go to "Set Default Programs" (Control Panel>Default Programs>Set Default Programs)
Select Internet Explorer and click Set this program as default
Select Microsoft Office Outlook and click Set this program as default
Run Registry Editor (regedit.exe) and browse to location: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Ext and change the value data of all DWORD entries from 1 to 0.
Launch Internet Explorer first; launch your Mail client (hopefully Microsoft Officer Outlook).
Check if all is well and you are now able to open links from within your Mail client.
If all is well now, you may change your Default Program settings to Firefox.
P.S. Just remember to say thanks :) and you can always change the Firefox icons, you do know how?

3. Under "Choose a default Web browser", tick Internet Explorer and make sure that all boxes are ticked for "Enable Access to this program."

Thanks for your advice but found the problem. The fact that the computer is also touch screen, I must have touched tablet mode on right part of machine by notifications and the more I tried to remedy the situation, the deeper the hole I dug myself into. Thanks again.
Thanks for the news. Have a good day.
Bye
