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?

    It truly is a giant puzzle why the Windows Photo Viewer has absolutely no problem using the email program that I have identified as the Default email app and yet this new photo app is clueless!  Ridiculous!

    Same here -also never use People, Mail and Calendar - only Office 365/2016

    Don't know what Microsoft management understands under "Consumer friendly" and "Team work" as their Windows and Office teams clearly don't have a coordinated approach and this results in these consumer unfriendly gaps...

    I know this won't be read by Microsoft anyways - so don't waste it any further...

    Basically I have no use for useless Mail, People or Calendar and only use Office 2016 Outlook etc, so find that these are wasted features which I wish I could completely delete off my PC, I am over noting that between them and Skype they are invasive on my private lists of contacts, no matter what I do to stop it. 

    I want to share with Outlook 2016 desktop, I pay a subscription so would expect that although MS wants us to use the apps, they should consider the fact that they offer 365 Office and therefore cater a bit more to that group as well.

    Mail/Outlook.com are of no use they are of basic form and to be honest why would I store my people and private meetings on a hosted email system when I can store privately.

    So because of those reasons why can you not design MS Win 10 to include MS Outlook 365, 2013 and 2016 as part of the 'Share' apps.

    The word 'Share' implies to me to include all the things such as Mail, Desktop Mail (365, 2013, 2016), Messenger, Facebook etc.  Why limit it.

    I get fed up with photos not being able to share via 'Share' as it wont register Outlook 2016.  I now have just gone right click on a document and see 'share' there and had hoped with the October Creator Update to Win 10 that this may be improved, no just a more confusing dialogue.

    I was trying to send an expense report.  It is totally crass.  I will install the mail app as that will get me the easiest way of doing it but yuck.
