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!

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?

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

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 seem to be missing the point of the "default app" if other apps don't recognize it, especially those with Microsoft's name on it! After reading this thread I think there's enough feedback here to have something done about it.
I specifically don't want to use Outlook because the ICloud sync no longer works. I'm happy with Windows 10 mail except that photos email at original size with no option to compress.
if W10 Photos "Shares" through W10 Mail, were has the compress function gone ?
