Open Windows 10 app and URL issues

    When I send a URL from my Android phone to the Windows 10 app, I am getting the notification that states "click here to open URL" but when I click on the notification, nothing happens. My browser doesn't get focus, the notification disappears and no URL opens. Any ideas on what would be causing this?.

    If I share standard text from my android phone then it allows me to copy it without issue.

    Actually, after testing a little bit, I found that if my default web browser is closed (firefox) then it will open the link and go to the website properly. If I already have my web browser open, then nothing happens. If there any way to get this to work regardless of web browser status?

    sorry, that seems like an issue with Firefox unfortunately :( As far as Join goes it just sends out the command to the OS to open the website. After that it's up to the OS and browser to handle it correctly. For example, Chrome opens the URLs correctly even if it's open.
