What is default mail client in windows 7

In Windows 7, the default mail client is Microsoft Outlook Express. However, if you don't have Outlook Express installed or if you want to change the default mail client, you can do so by following these steps:

  1. Click on the Start button and select Control Panel.
  2. In the Control Panel, click on the "Default Programs" icon.
  3. Click on the "Set your default programs" link.
  4. In the "Set your default programs" window, click on the "Associate a file type or protocol with a program" link.
  5. In the "Associate a file type or protocol with a program" window, scroll down and click on the "Mail" option.
  6. Click on the "Change program" button next to "Mail".
  7. In the "Choose a default mail client" window, select the mail client you want to use as the default (e.g. Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, etc.).
  8. Click "OK" to save your changes.

Alternatively, you can also change the default mail client by right-clicking on a mailto link (e.g. a link that starts with "mailto:") and selecting "Set default program" from the context menu.

It's worth noting that if you have Microsoft Outlook installed, it will be set as the default mail client by default.
