Hi Lynda,

1. who is your provider of mail service?
2 are you using any client e-mail like outlook or Windows live mail?

If you use any email client, then I suggest you to try the steps from the following link to set the program as the default e-mail client.

Choose the apps Windows uses by default

I hope this helps! Let us know if you have other problems with Windows in the future.

  • Cannot change the default e-mail program

    I tried to change the default email program in Vista to Thunderbird by following the instructions found on many sites (Control Panel, programs by default, set your default programs, and then I select Thunderbird, then I click on "set this program as default").

    However, when I try to send a document as an attachment directly from the application in question (Adobe Acrobat, Microsoft Word, etc.), I get an error message that says: "no profiles have been created.  To create a new profile, use the Mail icon in Control Panel.  I believe that used to work at some point, although I did have this computer for a long time, so maybe it's that he has never worked on this computer.

    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    It is usually the case with an update of Office, it will reset Outlook as the e-mail Manager by default and assign it all by default available values.  You will need to return to "default programs |" Set your default programs and reset Thunderbird as default and there all available default values assigned.  It is usually a good idea to set Thunderbird as default under "default programs |" The value of program access computer settings by default and after finishing upward on the tab "Set your default programs" by Ramesh was mailed. Please do not forget that * every * Office Update, you receive will probably reset Outlook as Manager default e-mail, and you will need to repeat this process whenever they do.

  • Setup Eudora as the default e-mail program

    Hello

    Operating system: Win7

    I have always (for the right reasons) sue Eudora as my main e-mail client.  Whenever I installed a Windows Update, Windows set Outlook as my client, but it has been noticed by Eudora which, early on, was told that he was no longer the default client.  I could easily change that by starting Eudora as an administrator and then clicking on the option to make it my default e-mail client.

    BUT from the windows of the last updated, it no longer works and Eudora told me that it was impossible to change the registry (even when starting as an administrator).

    I tried to restore Eudora as the default e-mail program by going to wut Start\Default program that eudora does not appear here and I can't change the (set on Outlook) to Eudora MAPI option because this option is greyed out...

    How can I restore Eudora as my default mail (mainly for the mailto protocol) client?

    I found myself a solution that may be useful to other people faced with the same or similar problems.

    1 each (major) Windows Update and for reasons known only to Microsoft, registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\mailto\shell\open\command key has been changed and gives the order to outlook... (even if it was for Eudora before the update).

    2 Eudora could not change this key (and restore the command again to Eudora.exe) even when run as administrator because this key is protected...  (I noticed that I couldn't change the key manually).

    3. However, when I gave permission to administrators to modify this key and restarted the computer, Eudora (run as root) could change the key which now reads: C:\PROGRA~2\Qualcomm\Eudora\Eudora.exe/m %1, which is what to do...

    So, problem solved, but why Microsoft protected this key during one if its last update remains a mystery.

  • How to determine whether Outlook is the default e-mail program Windows 7

    There are a number of postings on Internet in the topic configure Outlook (I use Outlook 2013) as the default e-mail program. I can go into Control Panel, default programs, select Outlook, click on set this program as default and click OK. However, I don't see any indication that I've accomplished anything.

  • Cannot set the default email in apple mail client

    Hi all

    I have a rather unusual problem. I'm on El captain, and I have 16 Mac Office installed (Outlook).

    When I go in my OS X mail client, and go to Preferences-> general-> default mail reader, it shows currently Outlook.

    When I go ahead and select Mail and then close the window and then return the preferences window, it switches back to Outlook.

    I can't set mail as my default mail client, which also live up to my sheet on part of Safari options (shows Outlook, no email).

    Is there another way in the system to set my default mail client, which will remain?

    I went the Outlook preferences, and there is no option to be found to set or no set Outlook as the default e-mail client. Strange.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    D

    You can also set this option in Outlook preferences. Try here. I don't have the app to check where, but I think it is located on the general tab.

  • Cannot set the default mail Client

    All,

    I have Office for Mac 2016 installed on my Mac Mini. When I go in the Mail from Mac client to set the default value for Outlook he selects fine, but then when I exit the application and go back inside, he returned back to Mac Mail?

    Assistance to get this resolved would be greatly appreciated!

    I'm under El Capitan 10.11.2 - the latest updates everything up ;-)

    Although the problem is not the same, please follow the instructions in this article to support to reset the launch Services database. Instead of typing the shell command in the article, I suggest that you copy and paste the web page in the Terminal window. Make sure you only select the entire line. One way to do that is triple - click anywhere in the line.

    If you do not already have a current backup, back up all data before proceeding. You should perhaps log out or restart to see a change.

  • HP LaserJet Pro MFP M125-M126: cannot set the default printer

    Hello

    quick response is appreciated,

    Hi @darshan9 ,

    I see that you have problems affecting the default printer for users and you cannot print over the network.
    I'd love to help you.

    Do you mean the configuration of individual computers with the printer on the network users, or a computer with multiple users?

    You have administrative rights on the computer to make changes?

    What is the name and the product number of your printer? How can I find my model number or product number?

    Download and run the Print and Scan doctor. It will diagnose the problem and could solve it automatically. http://www.hp.com/go/tools > using HP diagnostic tools for printers under Windows HP.

    I suggest you to check if you have another account user or an administrative account.

    I also suggest to create a new user account and check if you are able to set the default printer.

    Create a user account. Create a user account.

    If you're still having problems, run the Fixit tool. Diagnose and automatically fix problems printing and printer.

    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (she print or scan, error messages)

    If there is anything else I can help you, let me know.

    Good day!
    Thank you.

  • OfficeJet 6700 Premium error 0 x 00000709 cannot set the default printer

    I bought my new HP Officejet 6700 Premium on February 1, 2013. I use a HP Pavilion dm4 laptop under Windows 7 Home Premium. The installation seems to give no problem. However I'm unable to set the default printer and have the error message 0 x 00000709. Excel, Adobe, Outlook does not allow me to print.

    I spoke to the HP printer Department February 1st and they sent me some software of diagnosis which I sent back. I called again on 6 February and was told my problem was always open and they were trying to reproduce the problem (it appears on the net without a patch work). It is now February 10, and I hope the good people of HP to recall with a solution soon. You try to run a small business with no printer is not ideal.

    Someone at - it else ecountered this problem, and you have a solution.

    I ran HP utility, installed uninstalled the driver etc etc etc.

    I seem to have fixed the problem by changing in the registry keys. If HP wants a donation to charity, I would be happy to provide it to them :-)

  • Cannot set the default printer.

    I'm having a problem with one of the users on my setup of server companies. She is unable to set a default printer and cannot print from Excel 2010 to all. However, while on the terminal even when I login as administrator, everything works perfectly. I tried to set a default value manually through the registry, I tried all of the scripts that I can find, I tried to uninstall and reinstall the printers. I don't know where to go from here. Any advice?

    It's a 2003 server.
    The terminal is running XP.
    Printers are all non-local network.
    However, the result is the same for a local printer.

  • Cannot set the default printer. error 0 X 00000709

    Hi all

    Cannot set any printer as the default printer. An error message appears, error 0 X 00000709. I have tried to use a guide on the Forums, on the Windows system registry, still does not work. And I couldn't print anything using the PDF, but Words of Microsoft Excel and Notepad are able to print. In addition "format the hard drive, create a user and Fix a user profile is corrupted", is there a solution? Help will be very appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hi Aaron,

    I appreciate your efforts to solve the problem.

    What is the brand and model of the printer?

    This problem can occur if the wires that are not connected correctly, due to corruption drivers, drivers incompatible, if print spooler service is not started, because of problems with the printer and the printer, missing updates settings.

    Method 1:
    I suggest you to run the fixit and check if it helps.

    Diagnose and automatically fix problems printing and printer
    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/printing_problems/

     

    Method 2:
    If the problem persists, I suggest you temporarily disable the security software of the computer and check.

    Disable the antivirus software.
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

     

    Method 3:
    If the problem persists, I suggest you try the procedure described in the article and see if it helps.


    Note:
    try all the steps except the resolution of problems.

  • Cannot set the default printer to landscape mode

    I have Windows 7. I want to set the printer, so it displays default landscape of Notepad. I've tried three different printers and nothing. I go to the windows printer properties and set them in landscape mode.  There are two places to change, a Preferences tab and a default Advanced tab and I did both. When I print from Notepad they always print portrait. In Notepad, I can make them print landscape, but I have to change it every time. So, I want the default to be the landscape. How to make default in mode landscape.

    Lee

    My client found their solution. You had to install an older version of the drivers and then the printer would stay in landscape mode.
