Email this file - choose profile?


Recommended Posts

"Hi. I used to resize my photos through HP Photosmart Essential but recently

started having problems with it not recognising Outlook Express. Working on

this with HP however this made me look at alternatives and I found the

function in XP to resize photos. However it wants me to "choose profile" and

I don't understand what this is or what to do. I prefer to use Outlook

Express but will consider other alternatives. It could be that the HP and

the XP problems are related. I have checked my profiles (as much as I know

how) and they are set to Outlook Express. Help please.

Thank you for the work around - excellent power tool and exactly what I

needed. Doesn't actually fix my original problem but since I don't need it

anymore I shall forget it - until it appears again somewhere else.

 

Many thanks - really helpful

Sounds like your default mail profile is set to Outlook, not OE.... ?

That "choose Profile" message refers specifically to Outlook, not Outlook

Express. Outlook Express uses a different term.

 

So, somewhere, you've got Outlook selected as the default mail handler.

Also, in Control Panel, Mail, Profiles, you're probably set up to "Prompt

for a profile to be used".

 

Try going into Internet Explorer, Tools, Options, Programs, and look there.
