Choosing a default browser in Windows 10 does nothing

When I click "Choose a default" in Settings and then pick a browser nothing happens.

I've even tried editing the Registry directly and setting the values there, and windows still defaults to Edge.

This registry key is already set, to zero effect:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Associations\UrlAssociations\https\UserChoice]
"ProgId"="ChromeHTML"

Watch it again. It didn't reset anything, it didn't do ANYTHING.

I'd already reset and that was the whole problem. Your suggestion doesn't solve my problem.
