When I click on a link in Mail I now get "this application can't be opened" -10826

When I click on any hyperlink in an email (in Apple Mail) I now get message:


This application can't be opened

-10826


This just started yesterday. I'm running Big Sur 11.5.1


Any ideas anyone?

Hello genki01,


We're glad you thought to ask Apple Support Communities about the issue you're having with opening links in a received email. If you have't already, quit the Mail app, restart your Mac, then try the links again. Restarting can resolve many odd issues:


Quit apps on Mac

Log out, sleep, wake, restart, or shut down your Mac


If the behavior continues, let us know more details:


  • Does this happen with all email messages, or only certain ones?
  • Is Safari your default browser, or something else?


The more details you can provide the better.


Take care.
