This is generally a Windows function. To test it, go to File Explorer and double-click a .cdr file to confirm that CorelDraw starts.

Hi David, thanks for that but it is not thecase here. I can open a .cdr file from explorer without any issues, it's only from thunderbird that I can't open them.

I've been using thunderbird for at least 10 - 11 years and this is the first time this has happened.

any more suggestions, please?

Are you seeing any error message? Can you right-click and open? I'm clueless on this, but there are others on this support forum who may have more insight on this.
