Windows 7-64

Windows Live Mail 2012

Lately I cannot open an URL that is in the body of the email.

No error message.

However, this pops up in a window over the email.

"This file does not have a program associated with it or performing this action

Please install a program or,if one is alreqady installed create an association in the Defasult program Control panel."

Never had a problem before, if someone sent me an URL to click on to open a new explorer window.

I did a repair of Windows Live Email, but that did not help.

If I delete/remove Live email and then reinstall it will I lose all my emails, etc.
