By default message - not properly installed e-mail client

Separated from this thread.

I have the same problem with Windows 7. I get the "...". default e-mail client... "message.

I had this problem for years. And I have Outlook Express.

This happens when I want a page of a site, an e-mail when the site offers to share the page via Facebook, Twitter, E-mail.

I have the same problem with Windows 7. I get the "...". default e-mail client... "message.

I had this problem for years. And I have Outlook Express.

Hello

You are running Outlook Express on Windows 7. You must mean the service of electronic mail on the web, outlook.com

To use send this page or send the link, you must have a defined default e-mail program.

Up to 2 exceptions (covered later) does not allow a web e-mail service by default.

Windows Live Mail is popular and easily adjustable to serve Hotmail or Outlook.com e-mail service
http://explore.live.com/Windows-Live-Essentials?OS=other

Thunderbird is another popular e-mail program http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/

Microsoft Office Outlook (not outlook.com) can also be set as the default e-mail program.

After installing an e-mail program, make sure you have a default e-mail together program control panel > Default programs > set access and computer program defaults > Custom > click the caret down.

The default e-mail program must be installed on the computer - for example Windows Mail (Vista), Windows Live Mail, Thunderbird, etc.

Web-based e-mail services cannot be made except by default e-mail program:
* Yahoo, with the Yahoo tool bar

* Gmail with the installed Google toolbar

    Unlike Windows XP & Vista, Win7 does not have a default email Client. [What were thinking?]

    You will need to install a (e.g. MS Outlook;) Windows Live Mail; Thunderbird) , and then set it as a default for mail in CUSTOM (<>) article in Set Program Access and defaults of the computer , then restart your computer before any function send to or MailTo will become available.

  • "Could not perform this operation because the default mail client is not properly installed" when you use Windows Mail

    Original title: loss of entrance of Protocol in the list of saved files

    I use an old Toshiba laptop of two year with Vista as an operating system. It came with a trial version of Microsoft Office already installed. I had no use for it then after the trial expires I uninstalled. This seems to have created a minor problem with the e-mail program. When I visit a Web site and click on 'Contact us' I get an error message as follows "cannot perform this operation because the default mail client is not properly installed." I suspect strongly as during the uninstallation of office he removed a protocol in the list entry, similarly, the bottom of the list of the saved files. A check with other similar computers with Vista installed seems to confirm this. If someone at - it a quick fix to this problem? I don't want to resort to installing a whole new email software to fix this minor problem if I can avoid it.

    Hello Karena R, yesterday, I downloaded and installed Windows Live Mail, and I must say that I prefer Windows Mail Live Mail program. After making sure that Live Mail is the deafult for all messaging functions and that the entry "Mail Protocol" was now back to the list of saved files, I checked the problem mentioned in my original post. He is not fixed! Another small problem is fixed now if. In my "drafts" mailbox I have some e-mails stored there and when I click on one of them upwards now comes an email with the appropriate address inserted in the address line. Who could not before. I used to get this error message, which is now the new title of my post. So why the difference when I click on email address that I find on Web sites? Now, I also find that by Michael following the instructions (below), I do not see an entry "mailto" but his suggestion to step d. type in "URL Protocol" is not appropriate because it is already there. The installation of an entirely new email software should have my computer all the necessary entries for the new program to function properly in all respects. So what's happening? It begins to look as if uninstalling the program Office has pulled something real Vista operating system.

    It's a good thing, I thought of the research on other boards for my missing post.

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\mailto

    c. in the Edit menu, select new, then clickstring goodwill.

    d. type of Protocol of URL as the name of the new string value

  • Default mail client is not properly installed

    I get this message when I click on an e-mail link. Default mail client is not properly installed. How can I fix it

    Happends error because you have installed/used a different browser, then Internet Explorer, then during the uninstallation of the browser, you have broken the link between your default browser.

    The e-mail client has no path. To fix it, try to open your current browser, go to tools > Options, and then set the default browser. Close and your e-mail program. Re-open your email and try to open a hyperlink again, see if that fixes.  If not, go into Internet Explorer (if you are not already) and go to tools > options > advanced down, press reset, do not forget to reset personal settings, and then make sure the "default" browser is selected, and close.  This fixed my problem and is recommended for a few other places, give it a try.

    Edit: If it does not, what email program are you using?  Set it as default value (via the options of the program) also do so via the browser, Internet Explorer you go tools > Options > and set your e-mail by default also program...

  • Cannot perform this operation because the default mail client is not properly installed... help

    I can't send an e-mail from a link on a page without getting this error... "could not perform this operation because the default mail client is not properly installed"...    My windows mail is set as default and I can receive and send him good, please help.

    Thank you

    A program is defined as default does not mean that it has considered all of the default roles available.  In the case of Outlook 2007, there are 13 total default values that can be assigned, and it should have each of them.  It is possible to default Outlook for e-mail, but not the default value for write links in web pages.
