I am running Windows 10 and importing my photos into the Photos App however when I click on Share the only options that are available are Mail (Windows 10 app) or my Samsung printer, there is no Outlook 2013 option there so I can email it.

Am I missing something obvious?

    Have to agree the lack of Photo sharing with Outlook is really poor.

    Real shame as the app is great if you use Onedrive and sign into Windows 10 with a MS account as I do

    So please get this fixed!

    This is unbelievable. I changed to Outlook 2016 as part of the Office 365 upgrade. I do not want to use different email clients for different apps. Come on Microsoft - make Windows 10 work properly!

    Hello,

    I’m sorry for the inconvenience caused. In photos app you won’t be able to share photos directly to Outlook. As work around you can add your Email account to mail app and make as a primary account and then you can share your pictures through the Mail app.

    Use aliases to add email addresses to your account

    Hope this information is helpful. Please do let us know if you need further assistance, we’ll be glad to assist you.    

    Really? Jesus, that makes this program frustrating and redundant - back to good ol' Windows Photo Viewer it seems.

    What an utterly daft decision/restriction. We use Outlook on our company domain and I am NOT setting up my e-mail twice for the sole reason that Windows share 'charm' has no customisation at all.
