On both my laptop and desktop, when I try to right click "send to" mail
recipient - Thunderbird does not open. If I try to send a photo the
small window pops up asking if I want to resize or send original size
but after OK nothing happens. I don't know when this started but at
least since TB3.0.

I tried setting a shortcut on the desktop (mailto:) and it works every
time but right click - send to - mail recipient does not.

In Internet Options in Control Panel Thunderbird is set to default and
also in Thunderbird itself

Does anyone have any ideas why both computers have the same problem. Thanks

Go into your "Set Program Access Defaults" dialog (if you can't find it
otherwise, go to "add/remove programs" and click the button on the lower
left), select Mozilla Thunderbird and click "OK."

I have had to do that every time M$ updates anything to do with Outlook
lately.

When I went to add/remove and checked, none of the settings showed
Mozilla products. Changed them all but no difference. mailto: works
and when I am in Firefox and select file/send link - that works also and
you would think that it would be almost the same command.
I think everything went down the drain with the latest version of
Outlook Express.

I'm having the same issue.
this might help you..

1. Click Start
2. enter "regedit" into command line
3. click "allow" when Windows asks to continue
4. Find \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\Mozilla Thunderbird
and clik it
5. In the right pane you should see DLLPath key
6. If it has no value, mark DLLPath, right click and choose modify
7. Enter location of your mozmapi32.dll (C:\Program Files\Mozilla
Thunderbird\mozmapi32.dll) and click ok.

But this apparently doesn't work on Vista 64.
Anyone else?

Thanks in advance and I appreciate it...
