    Can I get Windows Mail into Win 7 that was not upgraded? A clean install by Acer?
    I assume this will not work for me?
    Also the gadget bar is nice.

    If you need a Windows Mail folder I uploaded a pristine one to Megaupload ages ago. Anyone is free to use it. I did post the link to it here earlier on I believe but here goes again.
    This is seen earlier in this thread. A place to dl vista x64 mail folder that you will need if you upgrade to 64 win 7
    Hi Guys,

    Is the megaupload file a x64 version?

    My elderley parents have gone from XP to 7 x64 and Mom misses OE. I think WM will do the trick but I'm confused on the 64 bit version, etc.

    thx

    If you are referring to the one I posted then yes it is the x64 version.

    Thanks,

    So to be clear,

    I copy the contents of your Vista 64 folder into their 7 WM folder, take ownership of all the files and that's it?

    thx

    I got Windows mail to work but whenever I click on a email link I get the message "could not perform this operation because the default mail program is not properly installed" Can someone advise how to fix this? Thanks so much!!

    If you follow the tutorial in post # 1 to the letter, it should work. Taking ownership is, I believe, the 1st thing you should be doing.

    Mailto: links


    I've gone through all the tutorials and registry merges I can find, but clicking a mailto: link still brings up a dialog telling me there is no default e-mail program.

    Clicking the "Read mail" button on IE's toolbar brings up Windows Mail, but not e-mail links.

    it must be something to do with not being installed properly, or not visable in default programs, as the email link/icon on the IE toolbar doesn't work.


    is there a fix for this anybody?

    A look back in this thread shows some tutorials to try. Good luck to you.
    Setting Windows Mail as default may do the trick.
