FYI: I had to right-click on the icon (in the 'All Apps' menu) and select "Open File Location". In that folder I had to delete the shortcut to the old operamail.exe to have it be removed from the 'All Apps' menu.

RE: opera mail cannot be default email client in Windows 10?Opera for Windows
Ah, gotcha. Thank you for the quick reply. I do see that the new installation is using the same location for storing the emails/data (in C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\Opera Mail\Opera Mail\mail) so I assume all my settings are there as well because nothing has changed in my customized Opera Mail setup. I guess it's just opening the application from the new .exe file location.

RE: opera mail cannot be default email client in Windows 10?Opera for Windows
Thank you for the solution, burnout. The ZIP and instructions work (I just had to Google how to merge a registry file). I am now just wondering if I am supposed to uninstall my earlier version of Opera Mail? I now have "Opera Mail" in my Start Menu as well as the new "Opera Mail 1.0 1044" from this new install that places the operamail.exe in the correct folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Opera Mail)...or will this delete my locally saved data/email messages?
