  1. SendTo problem


    I have installed Win11 as insider with a hotmail account. After installation I created a local admin account and used it to log in Win11. I wanted to add items to my SendTo account and I did this. But the added items did not show when I wanted to use them. I created a second local admin account and for this new account I added items to SendTo. I logged in with the new account and this time the addes items were available to the SendTo. But I do not want to have more than one account on my computer, so I did as follows :I did a full new installation of Win11, this time avoiding to use a hotmail

  2. How to include OneNote in SendTo Context Menu in Windows 10

    I have successfully added Evernote, OneDrive, etc. to the SendTo menu but was not successful for OneNote.

    The steps I have taken are:


    • Make a shortcut of your folder on the desktop

    • Open the run window - WIN+R

    • Type shell:sendto into the run box. Then OK. That opens the sendto folder.

    • Drag your shortcut from the desktop into the sendto folder. Close the folder
    I was able to perform the first 3 steps and was also able to drag the shortcut from the desktop into the sendto folder. However, when I right clicked a file and then Send to, I was not able to see the OneNote listed in the menu. (I can see OneNote, however,
    listed in the place where I dragged the OneNote shortcut to.

    Any idea why this is so?

    Regards,

    Windows 10 - Explorer SendTo Mail Disappeared

    Thank you for getting back to us. Since you already have done safe mode and clean boot, what we suggest is that you create a new local user account for us to replicate the issue first. You may refer to this
    link, for the steps.

    If the issue persists after creating a new local account, what we recommend is to follow these steps:

    • Press Windows key + R.
    • On the dialog box, type in: shell:sendto and click
      OK
      . See screenshot below:


      SendTo problem e8a0fcb4-a1c8-4661-823d-210c38fa3c42.png
    • Now the "SendTo" folder will show up in Explorer. C:\Users\"Your User Name"\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo
    • Delete the Bluetooth file. You may move the Bluetooth file to another folder before deleting them.

    Do get back to us should you need further assistance.

    SendTo right click menu problem

    Please confirm Send To works in other cases - e.g. Send To folder.

    The question then is- what is the mail recipient shortcut associated with. It may be opening something other than Outlook.

    You can inspect it by opening the Send To folder:
    Windows key + R, type shell:sendto

    Post a screenshot of what you see.

    Note: When I had a problem with this, I resolved it by dropping a shortcut to Thunderbird into the Send To folder.

    You can repair the mail recipient shortcut in the Send To list as follows:

    If you are missing the Mail Recipient shortcut in the Send to folder or it's not working:
    Make sure file extensions are visible in file explorer:

    1. Open the SendTo folder: Windows key + R, type shell:sendto
    2. Delete the existing mail recipient shortcut
    3. Right-click and choose New > Text Document to create a text file in the folder.
    4. Rename the file MailRecipient.MAPIMail. Replace the .txt extension as well.
    5. Press Enter.
