hhgygy Posted December 21, 2011 Author Share Posted December 21, 2011 Sorry that is not what I want. I want sendto to work with the email client BUT without always asking me whether I want to compress the size of the image to be attached to the e-mail.When using Windows Explorer sendto function, the Resize image option always comes up which I don't need as I ALWAYS want to send the original sized jpgHi Hhgygy:"Sendto" options are at hidden links placed at C:\Users\(here your user name)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo\(here all sendto links)You may supress any of them by simply deleting its direct access link (you must of course previously configure your file manager to show hidden files).HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannie Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 (edited) I want sendto to work with the email client BUT without always asking me whether I want to compress the size of the image to be attached to the e-mail.AFAIK it means that the question is posed to you after your mail client is running and not before. In that moment the Windows Explorer SendTo function is already accomplished (it only takes care of putting your file into the mail client and opening it), so the question doesn't come from Windows but from the mail client. If it doesn't give you the possibility of configuring it properly to avoid such questions you could move to a different one. I use Thunderbird and when I rightclick on "Send to email client" there are no questions at all.HTH Edited December 21, 2011 by cannie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hhgygy Posted December 22, 2011 Author Share Posted December 22, 2011 I have Seamonkey but as far as I see, it is not running yet when this message appears, it is clearly sent by Windows Explorer. I'm talking about this pop-up panel, it is clearly from Windows Explorer.I want to switch off this pop-up, if possible, with a registry tweak or otherwise.I want sendto to work with the email client BUT without always asking me whether I want to compress the size of the image to be attached to the e-mail.AFAIK it means that the question is posed to you after your mail client is running and not before.

hhgygy Posted December 22, 2011 Author Share Posted December 22, 2011 I experimented some more on this: I switched off my mail client, Switched on Windows Explorer and the Task Manager.This pop-up message clearly comes from Windows Explorer, Seamonkey is NOT started when this pop-up message appears.
