TB Portable v60 running Win 7 Pro.
See attachments. The 'MailTo' protocol is there, but under 'Description' it is blank. The 2nd attachment, I checked the 'Email' but it doesn't take. Notice 'System Integration' is grayed out.
Hi Bruce,
it will ONLY find it when your actually running it.
Portable versions of any program are NOT installed as such so when you try to make them defaults it cant find it on your system IT JUST DOESN'T WORK that way

I understand Portable applications (no thanks to M$). But, even when running, email links on web pages aren't responded to in TB when it is running.
Hi Bruce,
have a look at post 6 here,
BACKUP first
Make Thunderbird Portable default email program on Windows 7 ??? | PortableApps.com

I saw that, but the 'mailto' entry (folder) was not under 'Classes'. I did 'add' the mailto 'key' (folder), but I'm not sure how to go from there.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\mailto\shell\open\command]
@=""Z:\\Thunderbird\\ThunderbirdPortable.exe" -osint -compose "%1""
FYI; I have been referring to contact links in web sites via a email program (client), not using their 'message' provision within their site.
