I've been using this regularly to email photos (Outlook Express) but suddenly
it isn't working. When I click on 'email this folder etc' nothing happens.
All other options in the 'My Photos' seem to work okay. The Outlook
Express is fine when I'm using it for normal emails with attachments. Help
please!

Check if Outlook Express is your default e-mail program:

1. Open Internet Explorer.
2. Go to Tools, Internet Options.
3. Select the Programs tab.

Additionally:

Open OE, go to Tools, Options, General tab, click on the first Make Default button (if it is not dimmed).

To re-register Outlook Express:

Open Start, Open, type this line (without quotes) 'X:\Program Files\Outlook Express\Msimn.exe /reg' and press Enter.

(You must change the "X" into the drive letter where XP is installed.)

diannew,

Click Start, Run and type:

regsvr32 shimgvw.dll
regsvr32 sendmail.dll

If that does not help, fix the OE's default mail handlers using these
commands.

"%ProgramFiles%\Outlook Express\MSIMN.EXE" /REG
regsvr32 "%ProgramFiles%\Outlook Express\msoe.dll"

I have tried the suggestions offered by Daniel & Ramesh but still no luck.
Outlook Express is set as my default. Any more ideas on how I can correct
the problem?

diannew,

See if a third-party shell extension is blocking the "e-mail this folder"
feature. Follow method 2 here:
