3] Delete 0 kb Bluetooth device file from the Send to Folder
If your Bluetooth connection got corrupted earlier, there is a chance of facing this issue on your computer. In that case, you need to remove the Bluetooth shortcut, which is 0 KB in size. This is nothing but a previously connected Bluetooth device shortcut. Although this is very rare, the shortcut can consume the space of Compressed (zipped) folder in the Send to menu, and create the conflict accordingly. Therefore, if you find an item named Bluetooth with 0 KB in size, you need to remove it. While doing this, you should not delete any item that has a minimum size of 1 KB and more. Reboot your computer and check if the Mail Recipient icon now appears on the Send To menu. Read: Send To Menu is Empty or Not working in Windows
