Well, as an IT guy, my system is rarely standing still, but I can't point to
anything that could have caused this. Now a Windows update...hmm, I think
one did come down on Tuesday.

My default mail program shouldn't have to be reset, but in case something
caused Windows to forget, how does one reestablish Outlook as the default
mail app?

What did you change five days ago? Did you install anything, like an
application or an update to Windows, Office, or some other application?
Have you reset your default mail program in Windows to be Outlook?
