| How to make Outlook the default for mail When I right click a file in Windows Explorer and select a file, then choose Send To and Mail Recipient, it opens Thunderbird. I have been trying for days to get it to open Outlook instead. I set Outlook as the default mail program in Internet options. I set the properties for the shortcut in the Send To directory to "Open With" Outlook. I've googled extensively but I can't figure out how to make the default for the Send To -> Mail Recipient be Outlook. I'd be grateful for any suggestions. Randy |
