Windows 11 - after washing a second Outlook window is started

Mailwasher used to go to the existing instance of Outlook after washing. Now it starts a new instance, each time the washing function is performed.

If you go into Settings >> General >> Washing Mail >> you need to select to Use Other Application and manually navigate to the location of the Outlook EXE.

It will be something like C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12

With Outlook.exe highlighted click the Open button >> then back in MailWasher click in the field and arrow key across to the very end and add a space and /recycle >> Save.

The full path in MailWasher should look something like
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12\Outlook.exe" /recycle
