The Save Attachments menu item does not function in Outlook 2002 and Outlook 2003 (278188)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Office Outlook 2003
  • Microsoft Outlook 2002
This article was previously published under Q278188

SYMPTOMS

When you click Save Attachments in Microsoft Outlook, nothing happens in messages with unsafe attachments.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because access to some attachments is prevented with the new security features in Outlook. However, the Save Attachments menu item is still available on the File menu. When you click Save Attachments, nothing happens because access to that attachment has been blocked.
