Did you actually click on "Windows Mail" in that screen, and did it
respond with "This program has all its defaults"?

frustrated.

when i go to the default i see only windows mail and then one below

Yes, and did you check to see if they are set with all defaults?
Go to Default Programs either from the Start menu or in Control Panel
[Classic View]>Set your default programs>select Windows Mail>choose
defaults
for this program>select all>save.
Save the part between the lines as MailTo.reg (makes sure that's the
extension and not TXT).
