When I right click a file in Windows Explorer and select a file, then
choose Send To and Mail Recipient, it opens Thunderbird. I have been
trying for days to get it to open Outlook instead.

I set Outlook as the default mail program in Internet options. I set
the properties for the shortcut in the Send To directory to "Open
With" Outlook. I've googled extensively but I can't figure out how
to make the default for the Send To -> Mail Recipient be Outlook.

I'd be grateful for any suggestions.
