E-mail on the Start Menu of Windows Vista top icon does not work

Icon of e-mail on the top of the Start Menu of Windows Vista does not work. It displays a generic icon and when clicked shows an error message that reads as follows: "Explorer.EXE - Application not found. What I want to do is to launch Windows Live Mail (version 2009). The application works normally at the start of the Menu start Windows Live Group. I can not select Windows Live Mail as the default mail in the window client Customize Start Manu, because it does not appear there at all. There is an entry under the name "Windows Live Mail", but it defines the mail client by default for the site Web of Windows Live Mail, not the program. I tried to reinstall and repair Windows Live Essentials, but neither helped.

Here are a few screenshots illustrating the question:

Please help me solve this problem.

I managed to fix it!

I completely removed the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINEentry-SOFTWARE-Clients-Mail\Windows Live Mail and then repaired Windows Live Essentials.

Thank you all for your time and effort,

  • The text on the Windows Paint program icon does not work

    I use Vista and do not know if this is the reason why the text icon does not work. All other icons work. Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

    Hi bipsvic,

    Since when are you facing this problem?
    If it works well before?

    I suggest that you want to run the file system (CFS) Checker scan that might help you to solve the issue.
    To determine if the problem you are experiencing is caused by one or more system files that are used by Windows Vista, run the System File Checker tool. The System File Checker tool analyzes the system files and replaces incorrect versions of system files by using the correct versions.

    To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

    1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.
    2. right click on cmd in the list programs and then click Run as administrator.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue
    3. at the command prompt, the following line, and then press ENTER:
     sfc/scannow

    When the analysis is complete, test to see if the problem you are experiencing is resolved. If the problem you are experiencing is not resolved, use the procedure that is described in the section "the System Restore tool.

    Follow the instructions in the link below for more information on scan SFC.

    Hello

    AFAIK the Tecra M5 came with the graphics card Intel or nVidia.

    On laptops with nVidia graphics card, you can set a different option in nVidia Desktop Manager. for example allow several computers to office
    You should find it in the control panel.

    Unfortunately, I put t know exactly where the parameters are placed in the nVidia Manager because this notebook was shipped only with Windows XP but I'm sure that you will find.

  • My Eternity Bigfish game Mahjong towers work properly with Windows Vista. It does not work with Windows 7.

    I click on the game icon and the game window and page layouts start charging. But the process of loading stops at halfway and I get the following message: "Mahjong Towers Eternity has encountered a problem. Please make sure that you have the latest version of the game. I have the only version of the game. In addition, once I have delete the message I can't delete the game window unless I'm using the Task Manager.

    Hi martham

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers site!

    It is a standard error message coded in the game that occurs when MTE there is a mistake, for all sorts of reasons. It is a game crash, not a drive failure. You don't need to upgrade to a new version of the game. If you have downloaded a lot of tilesets and backgrounds, clean those out of your game directory. And if you have a large number of layouts in your Favorites list, delete the 'my' file that is located in your game directory

    In addition, check the compatibility of the game with Windows 7 from the link below:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/default.aspx

    Try to install the game in compatibility mode and check if this solves the problem.

  • Acer Windows 7 upgrade kit does NOT work!

    Hi I have an Acer Aspire 5538 (4 GB of RAM and 220 GB of memory) I'm trying to upgrade to Windows (vista and both are family premium). I read elsewhere on the site that someone had the same problem as me and earasing everything on computer seemed to have worked according to your suggestions (so I did and put everything on my USB). Later, I used the "dics ghost" factory, which deletes the database from the computer to the factory settings. So I'm trying to upgrade and the first CD has worked well "Acer upgrade disc. Now, when I put in the second one it says that my pc is not compatible, and that my pc must be x 86 (32-bit) or x 64 (64-bit). I went into the "system information", and it clearly states "x 86 based PC" until I do?. The second disk named: "Windows 7 upgrade media" does not work!

  • After the awakening of the mode standby, Thunderbird crashes if the start menu of windows 10 is open RESOLVED in version 38.3.0

    If I have Thunderbird up and then I put windows in sleep mode, when I come back once again, the start menu in Windows 10 appears automatically (can someone tell me how to stop this?). If I click anywhere on the screen menu start disappears and everything works fine, but if I forget to do it and for example, double-click on an email to open it, Thunderbird and then freezes. If I close Thunderbird and re-open he, she, then it brings up the email that I had clicked on, so he must have tried to open it while it was frozen.
    This isn't a big problem, just annoying bloom. Don't know if it's a problem of Windows 10 or Thunderbird. If someone can tell me how to stop start menu from popping up automatically, it wouldn't solve the problem, but it would be at least!

    Version 38.3.0 is now available. Resolve the problem?

    Hi Boopgirl,

    If you are referring to the menu classic start, so here's an alternative of third parties who use a lot of people.

    Official site of CSMenu:
    http://www.csmenu.com/

    CSMenu is a small application that works like the classic Start menu. It is designed for Windows 7, which does not have a start menu classic. Ramesh Srinivasan, Microsoft MVP [Windows Desktop Experience]

    I just follow this suggestion qnd it is ACE, thank you very much. I really don't like restrictions on the Organization and navigation of the new start menu and it's true that I was disappointed 7 did not have the ability to switch to the classic, as they did with Vista.
    But this little app is great and it looks even better than the original with its background of transparency.
