Microsoft OneDrive

Hi: I cannot get OneDrive to work anymore! I can send pictures but then you CANNOT DOWNLOAD THEM OR MAKE THEM ANY LARGER!! Help! Get the following message: "MID://00000013/ - There is no program associated to perform the requested action. Please install a program or if one is already installed, create an association in the default programs control panel".
I do have OneDrive installed but it does not show in my control panel. What would I associate this with Winows Live Mail or a Photo apt?

And be sure you don't put things you can't lose on that drive. Why that is, is widely discussed.

Is this from the file explorer?

why not create the file association? It's when you tell your computer or device which program to use for opening a particulary type of file, such as notepad for *.txt files, Excel for *.xls and *.xlsx files, Media Player for *.wma, *.wmv, *.avi and so forth.

File association
Feb 12, 2015 8:15AM PST

Hello,

What is the complete filename of the file you are referring to? If it's the "00000013" file, and it's a photo, try associating it with a jpg type program; ie: photo viewer. Actually as I read back thru your thread it sounds like the opposite. It sounds like the file cannot find a program to associate itself with (meaning there is not a program loaded). I doubt that though, because aren't you able to open up other files of this type?
