Hi I'm having a problem with emailing photos to friends when I right click on a photo in my pictures folder I open the option of sending an email. It appears to send then it I get an error saying there is no email program associated to perform this requested action. I have set google chrome as my default mail program under settings why do I keep getting this message. I don't know how to make it recognize Gmail as my default.
📎 AI Summary:
The thread discusses issues with emailing photos directly from Windows, with the original poster unable to send images via right-click due to a lack of a linked email program, and discovering that installing Thunderbird resolved the problem. Subsequent comments highlight the need for an actual mail client like Outlook or Thunderbird for this feature to work, as browsers alone cannot handle email sending through right-click options. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the importance of having a dedicated email client installed for seamless photo sharing from Windows.

thank you, II downloaded Thunderbird and it worked. I had no idea that's why I couldn't get it to work.

Wow, that is a great deal. I get the $99 a year one. Works great for me because of the 5 person license but $30 is definitely better!
Do you use Outlook to send/receive from all your email accounts.? That's something I've been considering. It'd be nice to not have to log into different web pages for email.
