    windows mail app


    All was going well for months; I have 3 email accounts in my windows app then I saw a danger sign across gmail. I deleted it thinking I could recreate it as I did initially but as the print screen shows I cannot. I have tried to set it up manually to no avail. I ran SFC and did a system restore. I am afraid of password trouble if I recover a Macrium image as I just reset all 12 passwords.
    I had trouble with Thunderbird as it is too hard for me. The other apps have restrictions like only two accounts and I have three.
    Is there a way to reset or fix gmail in the windows email app? The gmail account you see in the app is the one that does not work after the manual try. I would like to fix or reset gmail if I can, in the app. Gmail works fine everywhere else on phones chromebook except the windows desktop I am using. I am updated, btw.

    :)

  2. Organize Mail in Windows 10

    You have pointed to the Window 8 mail app, which is different from the Windows 10 mail app.

    The Windows 10 mail app doesn't have even the functionality that was in the very limited Windows 8 mail app.

    Send To Mail Recipient [Broken] Windows 10

    Same issue here. Upgraded to windows 10 using new mail app as default. Setup mail app as instructed. When I right click on a doc/photo, select send to mail recipient; windows says there is no default mail app. Unfortunately, there is no instructions
    for setting up the default windows 10 mail app as the default mail app. Major fubar MS! Need help with this now? What is the name and location of the mail app?????

    Delete the Gmail Account and start again.
    It should pretty much do it all by itself. I have never done it manually.

    You may have to do this more than once.

    I ran trouble shooter which found the store to be corrupt and fixed the files there.
    I have to think about this.

    I wanted to finish the thread I started.
    I kept trying to uninstall/reinstall etc. that mail app.

    I received a popup from Google followed by an email, that they were blocking gmails installation ; the reason given was it could compromise my security. They gave a link to a site where I could change the setting.
    The app works fine and I can work with all my email accounts.
    I don't think my security has been compromised and further, many others think the app was the problem.
    I hope any who wanted that app will read this and be able to release the grip Google has on them.
