There is no email program associated to perform the requested action. Please install an email or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs panel.
When I right click on a document [Show More Options/Send To] Thunderbird email I get the following notice: There is no email program associated to perform the requested action. Please install an email or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs panel. I've been using TB for multiple years with zero problems, this started when I recently reloaded Windows 11 from scratch (due to a bot virus issue). I have reloaded TB 3 or 4 times. I have also tried creating an association to MapiMail which hosed my Send To link. I had to import a new Send To link from my wifes PC after restoring the registry entry for MapiMail. I have always used the 64 bit version, so the 32 bit version is not for me. I am out of ideas? Anybody else have this problem?

I found the solution, it is a Thunderbird setting. I went into the Thunderbird app to set Thunderbird as the default mail client. Problem solved. Settings/General/System Integration/Check Always Check to see......./then click on Check Now and you will see a check box to make Thuderbird the default mail client. This check box is buried in the Settings menu. Check it and the Send To link will come to life.

This is windows issue. You need to go to the default apps app to set the default.

After so many hours looking for resolving this issue, it was what the Friend above suggested! Good job! Well Done!
I've been dealing with this problem since I finally decided I'd better at least try W11 since MS is determined to force me to do that or switch to a linux distribution. I tried manually setting TB as the default app for email and tried rwliebert's solution (just in case doing it though TB did something in addition). No change.
Then DuckDuckGo pointed me to https://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/thunderbird-email-association-error-second-fix.html. Turns out the fix is very simple, just commenting out 5 lines in the prefs.js file that relate to the Evolution Data Server (EDS). I won't go into the details, just go to the site.
