E-mail default program

I'm doing my default Windows Live Mail email program, Windows Mail at the moment is.  I went to the start menu, click default programs, and then set the default program - my problem is that when I go in there single window mail is the only listed program, Live Mail is not.  How can I make my program by default if it is not listed there?

Thank you!

Is it possible that you have mixed the terms of...

Windows Live Mail... it will appear under set your default programs
Windows Live Hotmail... It will NOT be listed under set your default programs.

I had read an article that the user can make Windows Live Hotmail , listed in the set your default programs, but I have not saved article. For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.

  • Windows Live Mail does not present as an option for default programs or in the Start Menu.

    Something happened this week. I can't identify enough exactly when so I can't say with certainty whether or not it is the new update of 2011.

    I use Windows Live Mail (desktop application) for the mail. It is installed and since I built the machine first. I've recently updated for 2011 through Windows Update. In the Start Menu, the default e-mail link no longer works. If I go to customize, I have the options of Windows Mail, Windows Live Mail, and Outlook. If I select Windows Live Mail, it launches a web browser to go to live.com and use Hotmail (which I don't use).

    Now, if I choose Windows Mail, and then re - open Windows Live Mail manually, I can set it by default. In this case, when I go back into the Start Menu, the link is there but empty and you get a message that "the selected item is not available. It might have been moved, renamed, or deleted. You want to remove from the list? "I can't get around that. Under "Default programs" in the Control Panel, Windows Live Mail is not yet there. It's as if she is not yet installed, and whatever the shortcut points to (wherever it may be) is apparently nothing. In the registry, under HKLM/Software/customers/Mail, there is no key for 'DLLPath' and "LocalizedString" as there are other programs.

    I must point out that repair installation does not help and neither does file and reinstalling.

    I managed to solve the problem.  I received an email from another user and I'm sorry to say, I do not remember what were the instructions in the email.  The answer to (y) our problem used to exist on the web, until Microsoft has removed the old answers live site, or something like that.

    IIRC, I believe that it was fixing the misdirected registry keys.

  • When I open "Set your default programs" in my list of programs by default, Internet Explorer is not listed. Nothing happens when I try to add using "Set Program Access and Computer Defaults"

    It started when the links in my Windows Mail messages stopped working. I received an "Application not found" error when I clicked on a link in an e-mail. I went online to find an answer and told everything to use the list of default programs. But IE is not on it and I cannot Explorer to display in the list, no matter what I do. It is, however, listed as my browser program by default when I go to IE tools > Internet Options > programs.

    At the same time links Windows Mail has stopped working, IE icon disappeared from my office. However, I was able to restore, and that seems to work very well, like the Explorer himself. I tried to reset the default settings of IE using tools > Internet OPtions (although that I changed the personal settings), but that does not make the difference.

    Also, it seems that the 2nd IE icon (which looks like a small page, rather than the usual 'e' with halo) on my bar launch and in my programs. When I click on that, I get a message saying "Windows searches for IExplore.exe. To locate the file yourself,... "And then it says the shortcut has been changed or moved. This would be part of the problem?

    Hello purgould,

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

    You have whatever it be listed in your programs by default, or is it completely empty?
    If there is nothing listed, you can view the link here which has a solution that helped some people.

    If you don't have some programs listed in default programs, then that would probably not help.
    Have you tried doing a SFC/scannow?

    Try the following steps:

    First of all, we run System File Checker to see if you have a corrupt file system.

    Click Start

    Click on all programs

    Click Accessories, and then right-click on the command prompt.

    Select the Security tab and choose "Run as Administrator"

    Click on command prompt

    Type SFC/scannow.

    It will scan and repair any damaged operating system files.

    If please reply back and let us know if this helped with your question.

    Hello

    The capture tool can create image files that you can send an email, but you must have an e-mail program installed.

    Yahoo is an internet e-mail 'service' that works through your browser. You must install an e-mail program and then set up your Yahoo email account to work through this e-mail program.

    I think you need an email Yahoo Plus (paid) account to use it with a local mail program.

    Alternatively, you should be able to simply save the image file as a .jpg or .png file capture tool and attach it directly to an email from Yahoo.

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you for using Windows 7

  • Why my e-mail default settings when I close

    No matter what setting suggested that I use for the Comacast email, when I close my windows live mail defaults to 25 and 110

    IM using windows 7 and IE 8.  I had no problem with the ssl settings until something happened about 3 weeks ago.

    Why my e-mail default settings when I close

    I think the answer is that nobody knows. You're not the first to have met this strange phenomenon, and I don't know its cause has been found.

    On my own machine, I found that the settings stick if I clicked work offline before changing, and then closed WLMail and waited a few minutes before re-launch (it is always a good idea to close the program after activation or deactivation of SSL). However, this does not seem to work for another user suffers from the same malaise, so YMMV.

    This kind of problem is often associated with the antivirus or other security software that reverses legitimate changes to files and some program parameters. You should check that it is not causing your problem.
