There is no associated messaging program to perform the requested action

When I right click on a file in the file Explorer and select send to > recipient of the message, I get a message box:

There is no associated messaging program to perform the requested action. Install an e-mail program or, if such is already installed, create an association in the default programs control panel

I did it by following the instructions with no result

This problem may occur if the Outlook registry key is corrupted. When other programs try to use the Simple MAPI Outlook interface, they cannot retrieve the required information from the registry.

You must first remove the corrupted Outlook registry key, and then perform an operation to detect and repair to ask Outlook to re-create the key. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Click Startand then click run.
  2. In the Open box, type regedit and press ENTER.
  3. In the registry editor, locate the following subkey in the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Clients\Mail\Microsoft Outlook
  4. Select the subkey and press DELETE.
  5. Click Yes.
  6. Exit the registry editor.
  7. Start Outlook.
  8. On the help menu, click Office Diagnostics.
  9. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the repair.

    Hi rdoran,
    You perform the steps from the administrator account?

    To determine which files can be repaired by the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:
    Step 1:
     
    NOTE: When SFC is running, it records its actions in the C:\WINDOWS\LOGS\CBS\CBS. NEWSPAPER. You can find specific entries of SFC searching [SR] tags in the newspaper.

    For how, see the SFC analysis details in the CBS. JOURNAL:
     
    * Open an elevated command prompt.

    * In the elevated command prompt, type findstr/c: "[SR]" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log > %userprofile%\Desktop\sfcdetails.txt and press ENTER.
     
    * Close the elevated command prompt.

    * Click the sfcdetails.txt file just set your desktop to see the SFC scan details (those with the tags [SR]) to the CBS. NEWSPAPER.
     
    * You can safely delete the sfcdetails.txt file later if you wish.
    Reply back with the details in the log file.

    If it does not help to complete the scan, you can complete the steps below and check out them.

    In addition, you can connect to the command prompt and check the drive for errors, and check if that makes things more simple.
     
    At the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:
     
    Chkdsk /r

  • El Capitan - mail rules > ' perform the following Actions: "menu drop-down is hidden.

    Here's the problem: after setting up the mail in El Capitan and synchronization iCloud with mail rules (the rules are still intact), I noticed a strange thing trying to adjust my Mail rules to filter emails with a few new subfolders. Rules are still in place and function (i.e. ' if one of the following conditions is met:' of > Contains > E-mail address > (+ other rules), then, "perform the following actions:' such as moving, e-mail message, icon bounce, etc."), but the top drop-down selector below him "perform the following...". "section, which in my case is generally" move message to: (name of the folder here) ", is hidden from view. It's still there, but I can't physically click top because the table/cell/div that contains this selector is compressed or not large enough to display the menu drop down. I know that this is true is because the other rules that make them several "Perform" actions... ' display the actions of second and third, but are hidden one.

    This is a problem because if I add another "' move to ' action, it is in conflict with the first... but I can't delete the first action, because I can't click on it."

    I realize that it is a strange... Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?

    Thank you
