No program designated to open the .eml file

Hello Mehul, and welcome to Seven Forums.

You may me able to use Default Programs to make that program the default program with all of it's associations set to it as well.

You can also do it manually in this part of Default Programs by selecting the file extension, then selecting the program to open it with by default.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Mehul,

I'm happy to hear that you got it sorted. Thank you for posting back with your solution. :)

Hello LavenderDaisy, and welcome to Seven Forums.

While in WLM, click on Tools (ALT+M + Show menu bar) and Options. Next double check to make sure that both Make Default buttons have been clicked on to gray them out. Afterwards see if .eml files open with WLM.



Hope this helps,

Ok. No problem.

Double check in Default Programs to make sure that the .eml file extenstion has Windows Live Mail (C:\Program Files\Windows Live\Mail\wlmail.exe) set as it's "Current Default" program. If not, then click on change program, and make it so.

That's strange. The default format for email files in WLM is .eml. Try uninstalling WLM and then reinstall from Download details: Windows Live Mail Save the file to disk and then run the installer. Note that this will also ask to install other items as well, so just select WLM.

Sorry, I didn't get that from your previous posts somehow.

Are you able to right click on a EML file and use Open With to manually select the Windows Live Mail (C:\Program Files\Windows Live\Mail\wlmail.exe), and check the "Always Use...." box?
