Unable to open Windows Mail attachments


Windows Mail (Vista) operated fine for over a year. Now I can't open
attachments (photo .jpg, .txt., others). Error Message: "Command
failed to execute". Tried all the suggestions above, no luck. What
happened - how can I fix it?

Re: Unable to open Windows Mail attachments

Hi Rosalie

I have seen this being due to Hard disk space before,

Have you tried the following:

You should also clear your temporary internet files from Internet Explorer
and delete all temp files in your profile.

Re: Unable to open Windows Mail attachments


Thanks, Kris.
Although my hard drive is 90% free, I did as suggested, but it didn't
resolve the problem Also, used the link you kindly provided, but it was
for Outlook Express & I run Windows Mail (it referred to not enough hard
disk space, which unfortunately is not the problem).

Appreciate your feedback.

Rosalie
