Win 10 doesn't recognize Thunderbird as default when selecting photos to send
I was using Windows Live Mail before switching to Thunderbird and have made Thunderbird the default email app however, when I right click a photo and select send to > mail recipient, it still opens window live mail and does not recognize TBird as the default.

Thank you, worked like a charm. I appreciate your explanation too, instructions were easy to follow. I've had others send me to the registry for non related items and it's always been very intimidating.
Good to hear you are now ok and thanks for the feedback that info was easy to follow.
