Windows 8 Blocks E-Mail Links
 
 

 

  

       If you clicked on the E-Mail Link on this website and you are using Windows 8 it will bring up the Windows Mail and then stop you from sending email to me "Keith".

 

       There are 2 way of working around this:

 

       1. "Safe Way" Copy my email address rc.flying@cox.net and then open your normal email account and select send or write new email.  Then paste my email in the address bar.

 

       2. "Permanent Way" This one only do if you "do not"  use the Windows 8 webmail and you want it to stop interfering with Outlook, Outlook Express or Mozilla Thunderbird or whatever email program you use.  This stops it permanently! 

       Go to your Windows 8 Metro start screen and right click on the Mail app.  Then go to the bottom left on the popup that comes up on the bottom of your screen, and click uninstall.

       There is a way to restore this so you can use your Windows 8 Mail again and I will look on the internet to find that way.  It doesn't take very long.  I will add it later when I have more time.

 

       Second method Disclaimer:  I have not tested this on other systems and we are still developing Windows 8 work arounds, so I can't guarantee that it will not damage your computer.

 

  
 

      I publish Metro Area R/C Flying to make a central web site for all the area R/C clubs, not to replace individual club sites, but to tie all of them together and promote growth and interaction between clubs. The most important service of the web site is to post the Metro Area Schedule. The schedule lists all the events for all the clubs in one location so that R/C flyers can see what events are available in the area and plan ahead. I believe it will also help the area clubs to work out their schedules so that a club event, will not conflict, with another club's event. The next most important service is to provide a Page that has maps to all the events, meetings, dinners and parties. Right after that comes the Newsletter Page which lists club newsletters. Reading other club newsletters lets members see what others are offering in the area that they are interested in and promotes interaction between clubs.  This is your web site, if you would like to show-off your newest plane, or share an experience, you can E-Mail pictures and articles to me at: MetroRCFlying@Gmail.com  There’s an Email Link on every page.
