in windows 10 you should be able to press the Windows key, start typing "default" and choose "choose a default email app" from the search results Best regards, On Mon, Nov 6, 2017 at 8:22 AM, Sveinn í Felli <[hidden email]> wrote:

So I figured she may have to specify Thunderbird as the e-mail client in the 'Export --> Send with E-mail' options. I think this is also necessary in Linux.

Yes, Thunderbird is set through Windows 10 as my default email client.
When I try to email an image, Thunderbird comes up. However, there is no image attached. This is my frustration.

It has to be a bug then. Too bad there is no terminal in Windows 10. I tried opening digikam in cmd as well as in powershell but there is no output there Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone. -------- Original message -------- From: Melissa Mendelsohn <[hidden email]> Date: 2017-11-06 10:23 AM (GMT-07:00) To: digiKam - Home Manage your photographs as a professional with the power of open source <[hidden email]> Subject: Re: Cannot set default email client in Digikam running Windows 10 When I try to email an image, Thunderbird comes up.

Just to try, I installed the 32bit version. It connects to my Thunderbird now.. but I get a message :Windows cannot find “compose”.
Any chance of a fix?

According to section "Compose new mail with command line" on this page http://kb.mozillazine.org/Command_line_arguments_(Thunderbird) it may be tricky to run thunderbird correctly from within a different application, and it may differ in details depending on the TB version, and the target OS, e.g. Windows vs. Linux. Anyway, -compose which is the command to let TB open a message compose window seems to be mis-interpreted as a filename in the Windows version of DK. So for me this sounds like a bug in DK, where eventually the TB command line is not escaped correctly. Does the name of the file or path to the file you are going to send contain spaces? Martin |

Currently I am working on this bug. It should be fixed in digiKam-5.8.0. It is
already tested here with Windows7, not yet tested with Windows10. Maik Am Montag, 6.

Thank you… I await… :-)
Since I changed the default to Thunderbird, should I change my Subject line to: Can’t email images through Thunderbird?

Hi Gilles,
Bravo!! I was able to send an image through Thunderbird. Thank you so much. Just so you know, when the email is sent, the FINISH button is greyed out. I had to X it out… Thanks again for everything.
