Ted:

Thank for your Chrome utility! I am using it on a Windows 7 64 bit system, it works as intended.

I was going to manually enter the registry changes but decided to use the regfix file that you provided outta pure laziness

This works perfect, great little util that makes my life easier.. I dig it… BTW, from these posts it looks like you have to be smart enough to read the install directions. Its really not that difficult to click an executable and check two boxes. I am running Windows 7 64bit.

Sirion, that sounds interesting - I’ve just set UAC to be in a “no black-blackground-just-alert-mode”, and it worked without all the yada-yada. Which version of Win7 do you use?

look, that’s not a mailto: handler, that’s a unique system call. I’ll investigate it if I’ll have some spare time in december

it works

win7 needs the make the registry entry first regfile and the option to prevent uac but then it works… like a charm

just download it install it then run it! follow instructions and you’re good to go

so far all of the examples at

work just fine

If I right click on a picture, select sent to, then mail, it tries to open outlook.. How do I get around that?

If you want many more characters to support,
You can change this to ISO-8859-1
you can just change it under root user,

locale-gen en_GB
update-locale LANG=en_GB.ISO-8859-1

Have fun..

Hey Bálint , Chromemailer is a usefull tool, thanks a lot for sharing it.
Do you see a chance to make it work with ChromePlus (a Chrome-Fork that embedds mouse-gestures and has removed Googles home-calls).
Actual situation is: ChromeMailer catches the mailto:Links but then it opens a Chrome window instead of opening a new tab in my ChromePlus

Works perfect in Windows Vista Home if you read the instructions. Don’t be a know-it-all and skip them. I have been guilty of this myself a few times.

Windows User Control will nag you if you want to continue or not when you click on mailto: links. No way i know of to stop it without disabling the User Control. I don’t recommend that.
