Hi all

Is there a way to fix internet explorer and windows mail. I using Vista
Ultimate and when I clik on mailto link: I get this error message

Could not perform the operation because default mail client is not properly
installed.

Thank you
 
Try going to Control Panel | Default Programs and make WinMail default.

If that doesn't work then try pasting this into a cmd window:

"C:\ProgramFiles\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe" OCInstallReinstallOE

Thank you for the reply

I tried the Default Programs and it doesn't seem to accept the command. When
I go into Windows Mail the button to make it the defaut is not active.
As to try pasting "C:\ProgramFiles\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe"
OCInstallReinstallOE into cmd window: I get an error message "Location
unavailable..."
 
Regarding the "Location unavailable" error, put a space between 'Program'
and 'Files' and try it again.

Thanks for catching that. It should be:

"C:\Program Files\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe" OCInstallReinstallOE
