Send to mail recipient not working in W10
I see that there has been a problem with "Send To - Mail recipient" recently, but, my version is 60.6.1 - should it be working OK in this version?
What happened was.....I came to my PC the other day and it had lost file associations for MS Office files (Word, Excel) and, in trying to fix, I clicked the "Reset to Miscrosoft recommended Defaults" button and then updated the Email default to be Thunderbird.
However, if I right-click on a document and do Send to, Mail recipient then I get an error message (see attachment).
So, clearly, this hasn't picked up TB as the default Email app.
Any ideas?

No guarantee this will work, but I'd suggest you download and run the full installer, set TB as the default during the setup, then restart the computer after setup so TB establishes the correct registry settings to make Send to - Mail recipient work.

Thanks for suggestion. Will this preserve my settings, accounts and local files?
I would hate to have to set it all up again!!!!
Yes, uninstalling or reinstalling the TB program doesn't affect the TB profile folder that contains all your data.
