Determining and changing your default e-mail program

^{Determining and changing your default e-mail program}

If your default e-mail program does not let you successfully attach a movie to an e-mail message, you might want to specify a new default e-mail program, and then try sending your movie as an e-mail attachment again. Your current default e-mail program and other Internet options are specified in Internet Options in Control Panel.

To determine and change your default e-mail program, do the following:

1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Switch to Classic view, and then double-click Internet Options.
2. In the Internet Properties dialog box, click the Programs tab.
3. In the E-mail box, the current default e-mail program name is displayed. If you want to specify a new default e-mail program, choose an e-mail program from the list of available e-mail programs.
4. Click OK to apply the changes.
5. In Windows Movie Maker, try sending your movie as an e-mail attachment again.
