Cannot open links after Mac OS 12.4 update

I've just now updated my Macbook Pro to Mac OS 12.4. I've immediately noticed that I can't open links in emails. searching in Google I've come across a "solution" that requires to make Safari my default browser. Why is it required to change default browser to Safari after updating to Mac OS 12.4, in order to access links in emails? When I change my default browser to Safari, I can access links in emails, but when I change my default browser back to Chrome, I keep getting an error message: "The application can't be opened. -10673.


Is there a workaround that DOES NOT require to keep Safari as my default browser?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.4
