    Microsoft provides Windows with many built-in applications for its users. Mail, Maps, Music (formerly Groove Music), Photos, Movies & TV, and Microsoft Edge are the default apps for Windows 10. However, you can change the default apps in Windows 10 and you don’t have to stick with the built-in apps. You can use alternatives to these applications such as third-party email, maps, music player, photo viewer, video player, and web browser.

    To change the default apps in Windows 10, you can follow the steps below.

    Time required: 5 minutes.

    Here’s how to change default apps in Windows 10

    1. Open the Start Menu and click on the “Settings” icon

      You can also open the Settings app by tapping Windows key + I.

      Go to the “Applications” category in the Settings app and open it.
