JeffA86 -- I tested this with Microsoft Project 2016 and can pretty much confirm what you are experiencing. When I click a hyperlink on a task, the Windows system sends Microsoft Project into the background while launching my default web browser. I also tested using hyperlinks in both Microsoft Word 2016 and Microsoft Excel 2016, and saw the same behavior as Microsoft Project 2016. Based on that, I suspect that this is the default behavior of Microsoft Office products, and that there is no way to change this behavior. Sorry for the bad news, but hope this helps.
