Hyperlinks in Windows Mail

• Could not open any hyperlink in an email from Windows Mail, regardless of the Web site

  I click on a hyperlink in Windows Mail and always get the message

  "Windows cannot find the name of http://site. Make sure you typed the name correctly again, and then try again. »

  By copying and pasting the link is fine in I.Explorer - default internet for me.

  This wasn't happening and has been for the last 2 months.  Exasperating!  Vista, Windows Home Premium.  Neither Microsoft or Toshiba (portable) can help me.

  Can someone help me please?

  My guess is your Internet Explorer or browser by default, does not all faults. This is usually the case.

  Start button > Default Programs > set your default programs > column to the left, click on your browser by default > it doesn't say "this program has all its defaults"?
  If not, click on choose by default for this program > put checkmarks on all entries in the list > click Save

• Windows Mail does not allow me to open hyperlinks in emails

  IE8 and Vista running

  Upon receipt of mail that contains a hyperlink to another site I can't open the link without having to copy and paste it into my browser manually. This has happened for a few months now, but I'm afraid I can't isolate when precisely, or more precisely to any 'event '. There is no error message displayed, but a small Solution Explorer box pops up saying "Application not found".

  Someone has ideas on the "why and extend ' and possibly a solution to this annoying problem?"

  Any help gratefully received!

  After the fact: I got Windows Live Mail loaded on my computer but decided to uninstall it because I didn't want Messenger but I do not remember if this event has caused this problem.

  Check the IE8 and Windows Mail if they have any defects.

  IE8:
  Start > default programs > set your default programs > click on Internet Explorer. He said "this program has all its defaults"?
  If not, click on 'Choose defaults for this program' > check on all the entries in the list > click SAVE
  If Yes, click on Windows Mail. Check its values default same method as above. Don't forget to click SAVE.

  FYI: You didn't have to uninstall Windows Live Mail, simply because you don't like the Messenger. If you were watching when you installed Windows Live Mail, you would have saw that Messenger and other programs are offered to you. Meaning, they are optional. You should take any of them.
  Ask around before you uninstall Windows Live Mail, someone would have told you that you could simply uninstall Messenger and keep what you want.

  Hello CrystalSkye45,

  1. have you checked if Windows Mail is set a default program on your computer?

  2. were you able to open the hyperlinks before with Windows Mail?

  3. who is your provider of mail service?

  4. are you able to do work when you copy and paste the web address?

  the problem can be caused if the incorrect file association on your computer. I suggest that you set Windows Mail as the default program on your computer and check if you are able to open the hyperlinks.

  1. open Set Program Access and Computer Defaults by clicking the Start button, click default programs, and then clicking set program access and computer by default.

  2. in the absence of programs, you can select Internet Explorer as default for http and https files and set by default.

  You can see the bottom of the article for more information on this:

• 'Unspecified error' box appears when I click a hyperlink in a message in Windows Mail.

  Cannot open any hypertext link contained in an e-mail message when you use Windows Mail. But if I connect to Hotmail individually, they do not work. So it must be something in the email configuration. But what?

  Try to go in the Panel. Default programs | Associate a file type or Protocol with a program.  Then page down for protocols and find the HTTP and HTTPS protocols and define Internet Explorer by default.  See if that helps.

• Windows Mail-> Thunderbird. Online help does not program. How to import?

  I'm trying to take the Thunderbird (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/switching-thunderbird#w_switching-from-windows-mail-or-windows-live-mail-to-thunderbird) online for converting Windows Mail to Thunderbird (no Live Mail). I'm at the stage of import. The instructions say:

  "In Thunderbird, go to tools | ImportExport | Import all messages from a directory. Also to its subdirectories. »

  Under Tools, there is import, but no footage. When the import option is selected, it does not allow a directory location, only what to import (Eveything, Mail, Contacts, etc.). When choose "Import all" and pressing 'Next' nothing is on the list to import. The button 'Next' does nothing and the Cancel button cancels the entire import.

  Can you explain (or point to an article accurate and up-to-date on) how to import all messages (including local mailboxes and the structures of files kept intact).

  Thank you.

  In the first paragraph of the section "Import Windows Mail Messages", it says you need to download and install the ImportExportTools add-on - we. Once installed, the relevant menu options will appear in TB.

• import from windows mail emails from a broken vista pc

  My 32 bit Vista computer died - power, card mother etc. I have Acronis Disk full backups on a daily and external drive Acronis cloud of my files 'user '. What I don't have is a Windows Mail systems working group to export my old emails. When I run Thunderbird, are there emails in any way I can get these old backup, even if it means going from one place to another to get them.
  As a temporary measure, I am now on a Windows 7 64-bit system.
  If someone can help, but needs more information, let me know.
  Thank you.

  If your drag / drop off the mail will find themselves in some folder you \drop in.

  A better solution would be to use the add-on from the import export tools if you have several nested folders as it will import a folder and the subfolders. The add-on will recreate your folder structure. It you choose to import the messages in a folder and its subfolders.

• Stop the background color printing on e-mail using Windows Mail

  I have asked this question before and was advised. [When I tried to find the answer, I got:' bughttps://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683139 683139]-using the ' high contrast black ""Accessibility Option"Win XP results in the colors of the screen printing", I discovered there was no such bug by this number. Now I think that somewhere in Mozilla there is a simple and complete answer that would solve the problem that I, and several others are apparently seen. So, here is again - when I get and want to print it, the background color that I have on my Windows Mail page prints also. That I don't want. I want to email to print with no background color to everything to save on color ink. It is not flattering that I get an email from my background color is printed when I print the email. So, I need to know how to prevent that from happening?

  Another thread is here - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/912736 - why did you mark it as resolved and then start another thread?

  https://Bugzilla.Mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683139

  This bug exists and a fix we talked until the discussion has been hijacked. Not yet fixed, so turn off the high contrast in Windows text looks like the way to avoid this issue for now. Or use another browser to print from Windows Mail for now.

• Windows mail problem

  Hello guys. I have windows vista Home premium 32-bit, such as Kaspersky Internet Security antivirus. I do not know "why windows mail does not open.
  I wrote: "cannot open windows mail because of a software restriction policy. For more information, contact the system administrator". Can you help me? I have HP Pavilion a6255.it desktop computer. Help

  Hello

  Thanks for posting in the HP Support forum.

  Read this post on the support of Microsoft Answers forum:

  If all goes well, the proposed registry tweak would do the trick.

  If you need a software email client for home or small office use, I also recommend that you consult Mozilla's Thunderbird:

  This is the free and open source, very popular and reliable program.

• How to recover after crash emails from windows mail?

  I agree with Akuma. It is certainly not related issue of Toshiba and you should try to check some Microsoft forum and try to find a definitive answer.

• Re: Issue of drafts of Satellite A200-28 and Windows Mail

  Hello

  can anyone help?
  My laptop has SP1 on it and seems OK except with Windows Mail.

  Every now and then when I put an email in the drafts folder when I return to finish writing it this stupid laptop has marked as an email sent so I can't change it.

  I have to open select "just cut" and paste it into a new email.
  Does anyone else have this problem?

  Stupid thing, it's there are 6 other e-mails in there in some are finished, some are not.
  Yet his chosen it to mark it as a read/sent email.

  Check if you have installed the latest updates for Windows Vista? Thought, there was an update for Windows Mail or something like that.
  This behavior was before you update SP1 already there?

  But I couldn't be that he must look at its parameters. Maybe there are a few options on air currents and how they are treated.
  Sorry, can't give you better help, because I only use Outlook.
