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?

    I also installed the FastStone image viewer and find it very satisfactory and it has no problem interfacing with my installed email client which is Thunderbird.

    I have spent weeks trying to share pictures / photos via Outlook and refused to believe that the only option is to share via Microsoft Mail which I have no desire or wish to use. I am dumbfounded at how much functionality has been lost in 365. This is so basic. It's enough to make me switch to Apple! 

    I installed FastStone Image viewer, it has a LOT of functionality and ...

    importantly integrates with Outlook seamlessly.

    It also allows you to specify the resolution/size of image(s) you attach.

    Why in the name of Bill Gates,  Can't I share a photo in Windows 10 with Outlook from Outlook 365.   This is just stupid.  Really...

    Absolutely correct. The glaring deficit it not being able to share from Photos, and for that matter Edge, to Outlook O365. You would think that Microsoft would think that this was important on a PC. 

    People writing that Android is getting better are also right. Ironically the Microsoft apps on Android do not have this problem. The options for sharing a photo from Outlook for Android are quicker and more flexible than on a PC. Right down to offering to reduce the image size.
