Cannot Open E-Mail Attachments in Outlook Express?

Postby ModeratorNA » Tue May 31, 2016 11:58 am

When you receive an email attachment in Outlook Express, you may be prevented from opening or downloading the file attachment. This behavior occurs if the “Do not allow attachments to be saved” is enabled. By default, “the Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus” option is enabled in Outlook Express. If you want to see the attachments then follow the following procedure.

1. Start Outlook Express.
2. On the Tools menu, click Options.
3. Click the Security tab, uncheck 'Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus' option under Virus Protection, and then click OK.
