    Outlook showing up twice in default mail app


    Hello,


    I have read many similar responses to this question but none have been the fix for me. I configured a new computer for a user and installed both the latest version of O365 and Adobe Reader on the machine. We ran into a problem where pdf to mail feature in Reader doesn't open Outlook to send the PDF. I made sure Outlook was set as the default mail app in Reader. In Windows settings default mail app is also set to default but I noticed it has two entries for Outlook (as if it is installed twice), I tried both, still not working. I have repaired and completely reinstalled both O365 and Reader, rebooting in between, still no luck. I believe the problem is stemming from 2 copies of Outlook showing where you set default apps in Windows. I checked and there is no pre-loaded version installed in Apps & Features (some people find Microsoft Desktop Apps installed, I did not), only Office 365 installed. How can I remove the second installation, or whatever it is, of Outlook showing up where you set default mail app in Windows?

    :)

  3. Make 'Mail' app default for sending emails and not Outlook


    I have both the windows 10 mail app and office outlook installed but when emailing a document from within windows file explorer it always tries to send it using Outlook.

    Is there a way to get it to default to send using the Mail app instead?

    I have tried setting the default app as mail in the Default Settings but it keeps trying to send from outlook.

    Outlook showing up twice in default mail app

    Mail & Calendar App


    By default, M&C app will install an outlook account according to your sign in. I sign into W10 with a non MS account "---@gmail.com" so my default account is listed like this, I can't seem to straighten it out/ delete/change it. Suggestions appreciated.
