Windows 10: No email associates ?

"Send in email" is greyed out.

 

In my version of windows 10 that function in WordPad works and opens up Microsoft Outlook which I have on my system. I'm just wondering if WLM is not integrating with some of the built-in W10 send mail features and so throws up an error occasionally. Another W10 program that has a send mail function is the Windows Fax & scan. You will probably find that WLM does not work with that either.

 

I might have actually fixed the problem.
But since I don't know when the error message will appear, I will have to wait a bit. By the end of the day, I should have a more definitive conclusion.

Slartybart mentioned : navigate to %LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail

I used to have 3 email accounts in WLM................... bell.net, Hotmail.com and live.ca.
I deleted the live.ca account. Don't remember when. 2 months, 3 months ?

Anyway, I went to C:/users/(my name)/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Windows Live Mail.
To my surprise I saw a live.ca folder. I tried to open the eml inside. Of course I couldn't. The acct was deleted long ago.
So I deleted the live.ca folder.

That was about an hour or 2 ago. So far, no error message.
I'll know at the end of the day.

 

8 hours have passed.
No error message anymore.
Problem considered resolved.

 

That's great news, well done!
