I'm not sure whether I have a Vista problem, or a Windows Mail
problem, a registry problem, or a bug in a particular app. The
situation is that when I try to email a photograph from Paint
Shop Pro Photo X2, I receive an Outlook error message stating "No
profiles have been created. To create a new profile, use the Mail
icon in the Control Panel." Outlook is installed, (since I have
Office 2003), but I don't use it...I use Windows Mail instead.
(My wife likes pretty stationery and HTML.)

It appears to me that PSP is picking up Outlook as the default
mail program. Is there some switch somewhere (or a registry
setting) that will allow me to set Windows Mail as the default
mail program instead of Outlook? Windows Mail does have the
correct options set on the general tab in preferences...default
mail and newsgroup handler.

Many thanks in advance for all ideas.

Open the Default Programs applet, which you can access either from
the Start menu or via the Control Panel, then click the first item:
"Set your default programs."
After a few seconds, a list of programs comes up. Click on Windows Mail.
If it doesn't respond with "This program has all its defaults" then fix it by
clicking on the option indicated by the first green arrow.
 
Thank you sir!
