In Word etc., "Send to - Mail recipient", not working.

I have PC with Win 7 Home. Email is via Sky Broadband.

When in Works Word, or if viewing a photo, the Right Click, Send to, Mail recipient, gives me the message:

"There is no email program associated to perform the requested action. Please install an email prog or if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Progs control panel."

However, if I start in Sky Mail and select,  Add attachment, and select the file it will send it. I then don't have the ability to control the size of a photo file.

Do I need to download Outlook, or Outlook Express, since I can't find either on my PC.

Hope you can help a novice, Thanks.

Thanks Bell Boy,

I have done as you suggested and, whilst the process wasn't intuative, I got there and all now works fine.

Many thanks for your rapid and much appreciated help.

Windows 7 doesn’t include an e-mail application e.g. Outlook Express

 

And you can’t download/install Outlook Express

 

Suggest you download/install the alternative for Windows 7 – Windows Live Mail, click here

You’re welcome  :emotion-21::emotion-5:

 

If you want to import your old Outlook Express folder(s) click here

The link refers to Vista & Windows Mail, but the procedure is the same for Windows Live Mail
