  Hello

  You have a common problem of Windows 7. You must set a default e-mail program and Windows 7 did not come with a pre-installed email program.

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

  Windows Live Mail is popular

  Is Thunderbird http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/

  Windows Essentials help:

  You can access outlook.com via Windows Live Mail

  Set up an email application with Outlook.com - Microsoft Windows Help:

• 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.

• "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

  e. exit the registry editor

  If they use an email client will have no problem. If this is not the case, they would have to copy and paste the link into their Webmail program field, so the link should be your actual address and not something like send me an Email with your address buried inside.

  Hi ESPLongBeach,

  (1) what you email client use to send email (Outlook, Windows mail, Windows Live Mail)
  (2) is your email set up for the email client

  It could be that you need to set your default e-mail client.

  1. click on START and then default programs.
  2. click on "set your default programs."
  3 look to the bottom of the list for the e-mail program use. Until it clicks.
  4. toward the bottom of the page, there will be a link that says: set this program as default. Until it clicks.

  Thank you, and in what concerns:

• Get a message saying that my default mail client is not properly installed.

  When I click on an email address, I get a message saying my default mail client is not properly installed, what can I do?

  Original title: e-mail

  Windows 7 does not include a default mail client.

  If you wish, you can download a mail client and use it exclusively for your e-mail.

  Mozilla Thunderbird: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/

  Windows Live Essentials (uncheck everything except Windows Live Mail): http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-live

  If you prefer to keep your reading electronic mail service, your best bet is to simply copy and paste the e-mail address.

• Get-journal authorized to perform this operation by using read-only user role, was refused.

  Hi people,

  What is the minimum role to get the newspaper my whole army ESX?

  I use the following script oneliner:

  Get-VMHost | Get-Log messages | Select -ExpandProperty Entries | Where {$_ -like "*error*"}
  

  but it always ends in failure result:

  Any suggestion please?

  Permission can be derived from the API method used by the cmdlet Get-Log under the covers.

  In the description of the BrowseDiagnosticLog method, you will see that it takes the Global.Diagnostics .

  The default read-only role does not have this privilege!

  You will need to create a new role.

  The other point to watch is the location in the structure of vSphere where give you permission.

  I feel that this specific one should be given to the root of the vCenter to allow access to newspapers.
