Either there is no default client or the current mail client cannot fulfil the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Outlook and set it as mail default client
After installing Windows 10, I was using Windows Live 2012 and received this message. I have now changed to Thunderbird and still the same message appears. I have made Thunderbird Default in the Systems Menu.

YOu get this message in a program other than a mail client yes? I suggest you ask in a forum for the program your using.
If it is an Office program like Word. It ONLY works with Microsoft Outlook.
SimpleMAPI is used by some applications such as Word to send messages using the default email client. Thunderbird supports SimpleMAPI. However, some applications require the default email client support ExtendedMAPI. Outlook supports that.
Microsoft send a message a while ago telling people that you could no longer use Windows Live Mail with Outlook.com anymore , saying you had to switch to using the Outlook email client. However, they were being deceptive. Windows Live Mail supports three different connection types: POP, IMAP, and Outlook / Windows Live synchronization. Its only the latter that was dropped. You could continue to use Windows Live Mail with Outlook.com if you reconfigured it to use a POP or IMAP connection
