    Windows 10 send to mail link broken


    My sendto has been broken. I had just Bluetooth showing but the folder at C:\Users\***\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo had all the right parts in it. I found removing the Bluetooth worked, but though I have recreated both the folder and the Mail recipient item a number of times the outlook link will not show. Outlook 2010 is the default e-mail and I have done an Office repair. As I use this a lot, under 8.1 I would be grateful for ideas what to do.

    see here: Tip 1129: Fix Send to Mail Recipient in Windows Explorer - Outlook Tips
    (The file location is still the same in Win10 as it was in 8 / 8.1 = %appdata%\microsoft\windows\sendto ​)

    Have you checked to see if you are running outlook in compatibility mode? This caused a lot of issues historically.

    My problem went after the new version of W10 was installed. It was clearly corruption in the original install.

    So I guess we have to fix it by replace shell32.dll and sendmail.dll who are corrupt.
    do you have any idea where to find them ?

    I solve my problem that way :
    I open the folder Users\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\sendto
    and moved all shorcut to another folder on my desktop
    then I repair my Microsoft office to be sure my sendto mail will chose outlook.
    then Inrestart my coputer
    then I re open
    Users\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\sendto
    and add one shortcut and only one
    I checked by click right to check if sendto work or not
    surprise yes it's work !
    I had one by one only the shortcut I needed and checked
    I supose one of them was corrupt, I don't know wich one I put only 3 on 6 I had
    but It's work for me
    hope you will solve yours
