Error 10673

What solved the problem for me was changing the default email reader in the Mail application (Mail->Preferences->General) back to mail. For some reason, it was selecting Microsoft Edge as default. Doing this removed the error message and I was able to click email links in my Mail app. Hope it works for you too.

What worked for me is resetting the default mail app setting in Mail > Preferences > General.

I'm Mac standard all the way, so mine was set to Mail.app. I just set explicitly set it to Mail.app again, and the problem went away. I noticed that the date of the mail app is 2/6/2022, so an update may be what kicked this off.

Give this a try: boot into Safe Mode according to How to use safe mode on your Mac and test to see if the problem persists. Reboot normally and test again.

NOTE: Safe Mode boot can take up to 3 - 5 minutes as it's doing the following; 

• Verifies your startup disk and attempts to repair directory issues, if needed

• Loads only required kernel extensions (prevents 3rd party kernel/extensions from loading)

• Prevents Startup Items and Login Items from opening automatically

• Disables user-installed fonts 

• Deletes font caches, kernel cache, and other system cache files

I have had this problem many times over. I finally found the quick way to fix it that works every time. I have sent google a response, but it does not look like they care to fix it or acknowledge it.

The easy fix:

Close chrome.

delete the file in your ~library ".com.google.chrome.savedState"

reopen chrome

Make sure you still have chrome as your default browser than your links will work until it something happens to corrupt the savedState file again.

iMac päivitys 12.3 version jälkeen tuli minullakin tuo -10673 virhegoodi, käytän Firefoxin selainta. Sain tuon virheen pois niin että laitoin oletus selaimeksi Safarin ja vaihdoin sen sitten takaisin Firefoxiin.....virhegoodi poistu.

It can be as simple as having a browser other than Safari set as default.

to test this, open Safari, go to Preferences in the top left menu and set Safari as default browser.

If the link then works you can also then reset another browser as default apparently.

this happens to me on my Macbook Air when it has been turned off.

Check you Proxy Setting in Network >> Proxies

There is a simple solution i found yesterday for error 10673. First i open my browser, google Chrome. In second place i open my mailbox and when i click on any item it opens immediately. When I do it other way around I get code 10673 but after a while, a few minutes, even without reboot its working normally . I tried it several times and its always working when i open the browser first.

I have this problem since mid januari I think

I have MacBook pro with version 12.1 Monterey.

Have a nice day

I went into my internet preferences and deleted a bunch of join automatically sites from hotels and places I don't need and that seems to have fixed my issue. I use four different browsers with no issue

ERROR 10673: The solution is very simple but you have to repeat it every time, but it is a minor problem for me. Before you open your mailbox, just open the browser of your choice. Only after this , you open your mailbox and click any link you want without the error-pop-up. It is as i said very simple to do it. I have been doing that since February.

Toggling this between your chosen default, and another browser, and then re-selecting the default of choice, solved this for me.

i also had similar problem and it was sorted after I changed my default browser back from Chrome to Safari

But there is another solution, it seems - sign in to Apple!

I had to sign in to reply in this thread, and now the links work.

For whatever reason, I don't believe I have needed to sign in recently on this Mac, so now links in Mail can open in Chrome.
