All of a sudden I can't open ANY attachments and get the error message
"Cannot find the file specified". Attachments show the correct icon so they
are being recognized.
After researching the error message I came across many causes and fixes,
none of which worked.
The most common response is to clean the Secure Temp folder (see
http://www.howto-outlook.com/faq/securetemp.htm) and I have done that. In
fact looking at this folder after cleaning and attempting to open another
attachment, I find a copy of the attachment there and I can open it from
there. So, at least that part works ok.
So, here's what I know:
1) the attachment is valid
2) Outlook is saving the file/attachment to the correct location correctly.
3) it can't open any attachments (so please don't tell me to check the file
associations).
4) Detect and repair has not helped
5) Scanpst.exe doesn't help.
Can anyone shed some light on this?
thanks,
bob
