Windows 10: Windows 10 Mail Program No way to change password

Using the win10 mail program, I have 3 different email accounts. One is a personal one through local provider, one is a google account and one is through EXCHANGE. I have been attempting to update the email password on the Exchange account. Going through Account settings, I only have the option to "change mail sync options" or "delete account". I thought this might have only been a quirk of the Exchange account, but I checked account settings on other accts and there are no change/update password options. The Exchange account was set up correctly and was working properly. It stopped working and I wanted to reset the password and have been unable to do so

Any way to add programs to default list?


Hi, good - an association is easier to deal with than a protocol, for which I see Thunderbird, Mail and Store listed. That implies Eudora needs to register its capability to be listed.

I noted this:
Ajay and Jim, I stumbled onto the solution.

In desperation I figured that I'd install the simple mail program the MS provides and use it as a go-between, but didn't quite know how to find it in 8.1, so I searched with the term "mail." Up popped an offer to, among other things, change the default email program. OK, worth a try. Eudora was the suggestion that came up!!!!




That suggests what you need to have in the registry. I found Mail\Hotmail curious (must be the Mail app).

I imagine you've searched around on this topic.
I just found:
Google Groups
- which seems to suggest v7.1 works in win 10.
