Hi, I have 2 different pc. On both i have office 365 and thunderbird installed (same version of both software) In both pc, with windows 10 64 bit, i setup outlook as my default email program. In one pc if i right click on a file and choose send to/mail recipient, outlook message is opened (correct behavior), in the other pc if i do the same thundervird message is opened. As I use thunderbird for private mail, and these pc are office pcs, is there a way to let the 2nd pc use outlook when choosing the send to right click shortcut ?

The same happens if from word , i choose file/share/send via mail on first pc an outlook message is opened, in the second a thunderbird message is opened

Many thans in advance Fabrizio

The Send To or Send via Email commands invoke the default email client on the system, so Outlook has to be the default on the second PC, and TB has to be set to not check if it's the default in Options/General/System Integration.

You may have to set Outlook as the default both within the program itself and also in W10 Settings, or even remove TB so that Outlook can actually be set as default, then re-install TB and select the Advanced setup where you can uncheck the box to set it as default.
