Help

I have decided to dump Mozilla Thunderbird so when I started to set up
Windows Mail, much to my surprise I couldn't find it anywhere on my PC. I
used Help, but the instructions state to Start-Programs-Windows Email and in
my case, there is no Windows email icon or program. I looked on Search-All
Files and Folders, and also on the Control Panel. Any ideas?
Thanks

Re: Help

Can you navigate to C:\Program Files\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe?
If so, right-click on it and select Create Shortcut.

Re: Help

I should have added that I'm far from sure that dumping Thunderbird as a
good idea.
