Windows 10: Change Explorer’s Send to option to use Gmail

I have been using Thunderbird for email. The ‘Send to/Mail recipient’ in Explorer creates an email in Microsoft Outlook. When I use it, it creates the email in Thunderbird. Because of the similarities between Outlook and Thunderbird?.I don’t use Thunderbird any more; I now use Gmail. How can I change ‘Mail recipient’ to create

:)

 

Add gmail account to outlook without text message verification?

A screenshot might help us identify whether it is MS or gmail that is responsible for this (my guess is gmail). The MS instructions you linked to say that no verification should be required if 2FA (in gmail) is off.

I suggest you turn on 2FA in gmail, and try again.

gmail problem

Hi
I have several gmail accounts and can sign into Chrome with each except for one.
When I attempt to sign in with the problem account it tells me that the password is incorrect.
Using Gmail's account recovery & 2 factor authentication gmail sends a verification code to my phone (which I receive).
The next step is to enter the verification code into account recovery which it accepts.
It then states that it will send a code to my recovery email address.
However, I don't receive the email.
I've attempted using a different recovery email address with no luck.
Now the email account is working since it receives (& sends) emails daily (vial Mailbird).
It's just not possible to sign into Chrome with it.
Any suggestions?
