Can anyone explain this default mystery?
PC Win 7. Microsoft Office. But haven’t used Outlook for two years. Instead use LiveMail.
Suddenly, continuous WinPatrol warnings that Outlook was trying to replace LiveMail as default handler of .eml files. Into Control Panel and checked all default settings. Opened Outlook and made sure it was not set as default mail handler. Reset the settings, restarted PC, even re-installed WinPatrol. No likely recent windows upgrade culprit. 2 days of restarts and frustration. `Booted up today intending to simply uninstall Outlook. Problem has completely vanished! Didn’t even need to kick the PC/Cat/Wife. Explanation?
