There is no default mail. win 10/64b, Thunderbird 115/32b, I tried everything!
Dear community, I get the error "There is no default mail client or the current mail client...". <send to> and adding files to a new message by programs like pdf printer stopped working. It worked before. Suddenly stopped.
what I did with no results: In 'Default apps' - Thunderbird ofc. 'Email' needs to be set as 'Thunderbird' reinstallation of TB 64b. installation TB 32b. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail, -> Mozilla Thunderbird HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Clients\Mail -> Mozilla Thunderbird HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Clients\Mailto -> Mozilla Thunderbird HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mailto\shell\open\command -> "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe" -osint -compose "%1"
I will add that if I set the default Outlook, it works (Now I have deleted it).
What should I do to make Thunderbird work?

Yes, it is marked.
Thanks. And what happen when you click the "check now"? All are the checkboxes selected?
Also see this discussion - it seems after every restart this setting might be overwritten, Not sure if this is applicable anymore https://superuser.com/questions/1613732/hkey-local-machine-software-clients-mail-constantly-overwritten
Thank you for your quick replies.
'And what happen when you click the "check now"? All are the checkboxes selected?'
Yes. Anyway, if I choose "restore defaults", nothing changes either.
" it seems after every restart this setting might be overwritten"
The reset doesn't change anything in the registry in my case. Everything is as I wrote above, despite resets. Mozilla Thunderbird is still there.
I deleted Outlook from my computer, hoping that it might improve something.

If you figure this out, please share the solution here. That's an interesting problem. I wish I had a windows now to be able to reproduce :)
