Since converting to Windows 10 attaching files to emails is convoluted.

Since the conversion to Windows 10 if I go to File Explorer from the email I'm writing, in order to attach a file I receive a message that says "You are not authorized to open this file. Contact an administrator". The file is usually a Word Doc I authored! I found a workaround. I go directly to File Explorer, open the file and save it to desk top. I'm able to attach it from there. It's cumbersome and annoying. Im sure there's one little change I can make tosimplyly attach files from Explorer as I did with Windows 7.

Is this on your own personal computer, not a company network?

I get messages similar to that at work, but that's just a company policy to make us aware that a file may be coming from an unsafe place. Unfortunately it doesn't differentiate between the company's internal file servers and the Internet.

I'm using my personal computer in my home. I have authored all the word docs I want to attach. I figure there might be a setting in File Explorer that is causing the problem since the same files attach normally if saved from the Desktop.

Sorry, I am out of ideas and out of my depth. This is Windows 10 we're talking about… :-(
